Description stefan.lasche 2014-08-21 08:35:51 UTC 
Description of problem:
Several "logpath" options in /etc/fail2ban/jail.conf do not match the default log paths in Red Hat or Centos. 

Example: all occurences of "logpath  = /var/log/sshd.log" should be changed to "logpath  = /var/log/secure". 

Other logpaths might have the same problem. It might be a good idea to fix that in the EPEL RPM's.
Afterwards EPEL users can simply enable the Jails of their choice and it will work out-of-the-box.
