According to this post on Twitter, they don't care what OS you load on their servers. You may want to review the process that he used to load FreeBSD described here.

Looks like this is live now...

@Sparkum That's strange, b/c I believe "enabled" is the correct entry.

Did you follow the steps and create the jail.local file?

@Sparkum What do you get when you enter the following?:

fail2ban-client status

Added "copytruncate" to the F2B logrotate configuration file and then ran a manual log rotation. Seemed to work ok (system is still logging to fail2ban.log), but I will continue to monitor.

I don't think Fail2ban likes log rotate.

Looks that way. I found this, but it's for an older version of both F2B and Centos.

Maybe working tech support for Cloudatcost?

Thanks everyone! I'm excited to be apart of the team, don't haze me to much.

I'm distracted by chocolate and squirrels.....

Sounds like my dog...

Seems like Fail2Ban stops logging after a log rotation. Anyone else run into this?

@scottalanmiller Glad you were able to get it working correctly!

Maybe this?

With Centos 7, I believe you should be using "systemctrl" instead of "service".

sudo systemctl enable firewalld
sudo systemctl start firewalld
sudo systemctl status firewalld

CentOS and OpenSuse are always my "go to" choices before anything else. Lots of things are made for Ubuntu today, so that gets used a bit. ML is on Ubuntu, for example, because the NodeBB developers develop on Ubuntu so the testing is better. Sadly, no OpenSuse on CloudatCost, yet. I'm pushing them for that and for FreeBSD.

Looks like FreeBSD is coming... https://twitter.com/devashevchuk/status/583256011529666560

Just ran into this one a little while ago when I updated my phone.

Just tried and load times seem fine to me. Maybe the issue isn't with C@C but some route between you and them.

@dafyre -- It doesn't look like they are automatically applying the 50% off coupon. Which plan did you buy and how much did you end up paying?

This one appears to work: 60OFFCAC

I believe that code was only good for a few days. Perhaps they will share another one with us...
