Hi,

I noticed that fail2ban was not installed on my iRedMail 1.1 system on FreeBSD.  I used the downloadable installer, and all other services are working correctly, so I was wondering if fail2ban was left out of the FreeBSD version of the installer on purpose?

If not, are there any issues with installing fail2ban manually now?

Thank you!

Fail2ban is not installed / configured on FreeBSD by default.

Is it ok to install manually?  Or, are there known issues such that it should not be installed?
