I'm pretty sure I mentioned this in a previous mail but on
trac.osgeo.org we have a _different_ tool to guard against
brute-force login attempts: 'denyhosts' (dpkg -L denyhosts).

That daemon is still running at the moment. Should it be
removed to make everything handled by fail2ban ?

Markus, I found a mention of fail2ban on the wiki:
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/SAC:Standard_System_Setup#Fail2ban
You could maybe move that content to a SAC:fail2ban or similar,
adding the usage instructions ?
