Vesta Control Panel - Forum

Yes I think that is a good idea. Thanks you too.:)
I have tested this out and seems to work.

Change 8383 to whatever port your using.

sed -i 's/8083;/8383;/' /usr/local/vesta/bin/v-add-firewall-chain


Then you have to reload or restart the fail2ban service


systemctl reload fail2ban.service ...

So I just had some time to confirm this and yes if the port is not changed it does not ban you.
Yes I think those are all great suggestions, a place to set the port would be great! Looks like the vesta config is not generated like the other sites configs so I'm not sure how big of a change it would ...

I might be wrong but I just wanted to point out that I believe fail2ban might not work correctly for the panel after changing from the default port. Looks like the port used for setting up the vesta fail2ban chain is set in v-add-firewall-chain.
