* various minor bug fixes
* changelog: http://www.ankisrs.net/changes.html
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:

* Tue Apr  5 2011 Christian Krause <chkr at fedoraproject.org> - 1.2.8-1

================================================================================
 fail2ban-0.8.4-27.fc13 (FEDORA-2011-5151)
 Ban IPs that make too many password failures
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

fail2ban used predictable /tmp files which a local user can allocate before fail2ban does. All tmp files have been moved to /var/lib/fail2ban. This also helps with selinux policies.

Another security related fix is that fail2ban defaulted to gamin which conflicts with selinux, so users had to typically choose between fail2ban and selinux. fail2ban now defaults to inotify (thanks to Jonathan Underwood).

There are also some minor bugs fixed:
* tmpfiles.d support for tmpfs /var/run
* example mail domains changed to normalized example.com.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ChangeLog:

* Sat Apr  9 2011 Axel Thimm <Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net> - 0.8.4-27
- Move tmp files to /var/lib (suggested by Phil Anderson).
- Enable inotify support (by Jonathan Underwood).
- Fixes RH bugs #669966, #669965, #551895, #552947, #658849, #656584.
