fail2ban

linuxserver/fail2ban

Fail2ban is a daemon to ban hosts that cause multiple authentication errors.

Supported Architectures

We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker here and our announcement here.

Simply pulling lscr.io/linuxserver/fail2ban:latest should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.

The architectures supported by this image are:

Architecture	Available	Tag
x86-64	✅	amd64-<version tag>
arm64	✅	arm64v8-<version tag>
armhf	❌

Application Setup

This container is designed to allow fail2ban to function at the host level, as well as at the docker container level. If you are running applications on the host, you will need to set the chain to INPUT in the jail for that application.

Configuration Files

On first run, the container will create a number of folders and files in /config. The default configurations for fail2ban are all disabled by default.

Please refer to the Configuration README, which can be viewed in our repository, or in your config folder at /config/fail2ban/README.md.

Remote Logs

All jails require the ability to read the application log files. We recommend mounting each application's log folder as a volume to the container (illustrated by the optional volumes in our documentation). Mounting individual log files can cause issues and is not recommended.

The /remotelogs path is designed to act as a parent for all log files you would like fail2ban to be able to use. Each log file should be mounted in a subfolder underneath /remotelogs, ex:

/remotelogs/nginx/ would mount a folder containing the nginx logs to the container

Usage

To help you get started creating a container from this image you can either use docker-compose or the docker cli.

Parameters

Docker images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate <external>:<internal> respectively. For example, -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080 outside the container.

Ports (`-p`)

Parameter	Function

Networking (`--net`)

Parameter	Function
`--net=host`	Shares host networking with container.

Env	Function

Miscellaneous Options

Parameter	Function

Portainer notice

{% hint style="warning" %} This image utilises cap_add or sysctl to work properly. This is not implemented properly in some versions of Portainer, thus this image may not work if deployed through Portainer. {% endhint %}

Environment variables from files (Docker secrets)

You can set any environment variable from a file by using a special prepend FILE__.

As an example:

-e FILE__PASSWORD=/run/secrets/mysecretpassword

Will set the environment variable PASSWORD based on the contents of the /run/secrets/mysecretpassword file.

Umask for running applications

For all of our images we provide the ability to override the default umask settings for services started within the containers using the optional -e UMASK=022 setting. Keep in mind umask is not chmod it subtracts from permissions based on it's value it does not add. Please read up here before asking for support.

User / Group Identifiers

When using volumes (-v flags), permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container, we avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user PUID and group PGID.

Ensure any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.

In this instance PUID=1000 and PGID=1000, to find yours use id user as below:

  $ id username
    uid=1000(dockeruser) gid=1000(dockergroup) groups=1000(dockergroup)

Docker Mods

We publish various Docker Mods to enable additional functionality within the containers. The list of Mods available for this image (if any) as well as universal mods that can be applied to any one of our images can be accessed via the dynamic badges above.

Support Info

Shell access whilst the container is running:
- docker exec -it fail2ban /bin/bash

- docker logs -f fail2ban
