[SSHGuard-users] Asterisk support

[David M. <dm...@gm...>]

Hello List

I am an asterisk administrator and developer and I am fed up with fail2ban.
I have been following SSHGuard for some time, hoping for asterisk support,
but still clinging to mostly-working fail2ban. That has changed, I now have
a mandate to replace fail2ban. I have done some searching, I found [1] and
[2] - [1] indicates that support was added at some point, but grepping the
source tree makes me think that it is no longer there. I imagine this is
because it was incomplete. [2] indicates 'Defer until fail2ban backend is
available'

I am willing to do development work to enable asterisk support in SSHGuard.
I'm wondering what the 'fail2ban backend' is, and whether it's available
yet? I would love to read more details about the required process to get
asterisk integrated into SSHGuard

Thank you

David
