If you could be more specific than "Have fail2ban look at your log," I think that would be helpful. If it takes a custom script, I don't think you need to write the script, but showing how fail2ban can use an arbitrary script is better than what you have now. (more) |

This is super-unlikely to be what you're looking for, but it may help you in the future: PDFs have a mechanism to stamp in form field data from XML.
IIRC, you create the data file separately with a reference to the PDF form it loads into. This is useful if you have some process to generate partial... (more) |

A: Confused about what "Linux" means Richard Stallman wants you to use GNU/Linux to refer to the combination of OS and kernel that people typically call Linux. I am not a Stallman partisan one way or the other, but I think noting his complaint is informative in this context. I have emphasized the sentence of the excerpt below where he d... (more) |

A `command` stanza on an authorized key works like the `ForceCommand` on SSHD Config. It runs the one specified command instead of your requested command or interactive session and then closes the connection. Obvi... (more) |
