kinda of notice your getting to know fail2ban has crashed on a logrotate. I just did a force rotate and the only thing fail2ban did was restart.

There's no notice. For some reason it cannot find the log file(s) it's tracking anymore after a log rotate and stops adding IPs. The way I noticed this was happening is because fail2ban started to get awfully quiet (no ban mails).

I am using Centos 6.2 + postfix + fail2ban-0.8.2-3.el6.rf

The problem I'm seeing is with the EPEL build for CentOS 6. I don't know if the RF build is also affected.
