I have noticed that Microsoft and google are trying to scan my domain for /php-myadmin and similar links that I thankfully do not have.
I had already fail2ban running but it failed to ban a single IP. I did setup custom filters that would ban admin panel scanning attempts but somehow now it also bans my home IP and my phone 5G ip sometimes. No idea how to fix it so far. Also, this filter/jail doesnt necessarily jail everyone attempting to reach these links, just sometimes it does.
I'll have to look at my fail2ban logs and see if I'm having similar issues.
It should be possible to mod your jail to whitelist an IP range on your local Network.
I'm doing that on one of my jails.
Good catch. My IP is dynamic. I'll look into it, thanks!
