Comment on CrowdSec vs Fail2Ban - What to use?
SirMaple__@lemmy.ca 2 days agoNo problem. It’s a great piece of software. I have it monitoring logs for nextcloud, vaultwarden, mailcow(postfix & dovecot), basic nginx proxies (just to be safe and for rate limiting). I have 4 OPNsense and 1 Debian bouncers.
I had an issue with so a note about setting up the bouncer on OPNsense. If you have the LAPI on a different machine you can currently only connected OPNsense to the using the command line. The LAPI options in the web interface are for defining the interface to bind to and run the LAPI on OPNsense itself. Which isn’t an issue, I just wanted it on a VM so it’s easier to keep online instead of it going down if the OPNsense it’s on fails. Plus I like to keep SSH disabled on my OPNsense devices and spend a bit of time using cscli on the LAPI VM from time to time.

Cheers, I’ve since discovered that’s is “bouncers” that I want on the endpoints I.e on my Nginx Proxy Manager. I’ll just use the LAPI on the Opnsense box for now I think.
