  1. Hello Wes.
  2.  
  3. I have a question regarding security and Digital Ocean, so I thought you two are the best crew to ask.
  4.  
  5. I have fail2ban working on my DO dropplet and saw that I have 2-4 bans each minute! So my thought is, can I set up fail2ban to use the network firewall within the DO data center to block the traffic of banned IPs?
  6.  
  7. In addition to that: Is there any "community" feature, so IPs that are banned by other DO hosts are blocked automatically to access my dropplet?
  8.  
  9. Thanks for information and ideas how to pull this off.
  10.

  15. Not sure about fail2ban, but another similar program I use, denyhosts, supports an optional federated/distributed block li
