Syncing firewall rules across multiple servers?

[Wambo]

What is the best way to do this so that if someone tries to brute force ssh into one server or do something that would get them blocked by fail2ban that it also blocks them on other servers ?

I don't know why you would want to do such a thing, but rsync would be the tool of choice for any sync jobs.

One server is a file server and the other is the website. They are related so if someone is blocked on one they should be blocked on both. I will look at rsync to do this. Any other suggestions?

Sorry guys I forgot about this. Never did set it up. Anyone have other suggestions before I try something?

You could build something based off https://github.com/splitice/IPTables.Net if you are familiar with software development.
