otrs.xml lists all modules which are currently available.

AuthFail

AuthFail is an authentication module which always fails. It was written with Fail2ban in mind. You can use it both for agent and customer frontends. Simply add it as a last resort authentication to Kernel/Config.pm:

$Self->{"AuthModule10"} = 'Kernel::System::Auth::Fail';
$Self->{"Customer::AuthModule10"} = 'Kernel::System::Auth::Fail';

That way, AuthFail will only be called if all prior authentication methods have failed. It also places 2 config files, filter.d/otrs.local and jail.d/otrs.local, in scripts/fail2ban inside your OTRS directory. Copy them to the respective directories of your Fail2ban configuration, e.g. /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/ and /etc/fail2ban/jail.d/. Then modify those two config file to suit your environment, and restart Fail2ban.

A sample syslog written by AuthFail may look like this:

Feb 12 03:00:07 otrs OTRS-CGI-10[83711]: [Error][Kernel::System::Auth::Fail::Auth][Line:64]: AUTHFAIL10:192.168.23.42 USERNAME:someuser
