Fail2Ban Log Viewer

A script to print out the Fail2Ban log in a organized way.

To get it working:

• Upload the script somewhere
• Log in to your SSH terminal
• make it executable with
  chmod +x fail2ban.sh
• and finally launch it with
  ./fail2ban.sh

That's it.

Features:

• Display Hostname and IP

• Display IP and Auth Method used (For example SSH or Nginx Auth)

• Allows a user specified path inside the script

• Fallback path if user specified path fails

• Auto-Search feature if Fallback path and user path fail

• Purge/Clear the Fail2Ban.log after displaying

  Example: ./fail2ban.sh --clear or ./fail2ban.sh -c

• Use new path if file was found

• Check if Fail2Ban is installed

• Able to pass CLI Argument -p or --path to use a custom path for the log file at start.

  Example: ./fail2ban.sh -p /your/log/path.log or ./fail2ban.sh --path /your/log/path.log

• Able to handle unknown CLI Arguments, aswell as --help, -h or -?

  Example: ./fail2ban.sh --help, ./fail2ban.sh -h or ./fail2ban.sh -?

• CLI Argument --force or -f which forces the start and doesn't prompt for input

• More comming soon!
