    I thought I had fail2ban in place... It turns out I did, but when I
    moved to HAPROXY I broke it. It bypasses the telnet daemon
    altogether so no fail2ban action.

    It turns out I've been saving the BBS from some level of hammering
    by only allowing HAPROXY 2 concurrent logins shared amongst 8 BBS
    nodes. Once I noticed that and cranked it up to 8, all of a sudden
    I have all nodes busy and HAPROXY sucking its thumb trying to talk
    to busy ports.

    SO, to try and save re-inventing the wheel, has anyone setup
    fail2ban to run on the HAPROXY log or get a decent log out of it actually, it ¨seems highly resistant to wanting to connection log for me.

    I think my short term answer will be to turn concurrent connections
    down a bit again, but it would be nice to get to 1:1
