Fail2ban not installed - how to add?

Hi there!

I’m new and it’s my first post, so bear with me. I managed to get everything up and running and I was able to master some roadblocks along the way.

There is one thing though which I am pretty lost over. I installed hestia using the generated command from the website, where I selected fail2ban but, potentially crucially, not iptables.

Then I noticed that fail2ban is not installed at all. Is there any way I can add it to the existing hestia system?

Ok I think I got somewhere, by looking at the install script I was able to execute what was skipped.

I can now see firewall settings in Hestia, but apart from being able to edit fail2ban jail.local, I don’t see anything else. Am I supposed to have some fail2ban gui somewhere, or is that it?

Ah, the banned IP addresses page, I guess. Nice :slight_smile:
