Yup, thank you. I added the following stanza to
/etc/fail2ban/jail.d/curley.conf:

[sshd]
backend = systemd

(The "enabled" pair is already given in defaults-debian.conf.)

And running "fail2ban-client -d | grep -i ssh" confirms both that the
server is running, and that the ssh jail is enabled.

Which lead to another problem: I got a warning:

519846]: WARNING 'allowipv6' not defined in 'Definition'. Using default
one: 'auto'

Which would have been fine, except a) I don't like warnings, and 2) I
do not use or want ipv6. So I changed that to a no in fail2ban.local.
And I had to move that stanza to under the [Definition] heading to
quiet the warning.
