fail2ban Squawk
I was attempting to setup a systemd timer and checking the syntax
of that when I ran across a complaint from the fail2ban program
which is a bit confusing. It reads:
/lib/systemd/system/fail2ban.service:12: PIDFile= references path below legacy directory /var/run/, updating /var/run/fail2ban/fail2ban.pid → /run/fail2ban/fail2ban.pid; please update the unit file accordingly.
So I looked in to that file and the actual line they were
referring 2 is numbered 15 and points fail2ban.pid to
/var/run/fail2ban/fail2ban.pid where it certainly lives with a
recent date. What is the problem exactly?
Enquiring minds want to know.
Thanks for any and all constructive ideas.
