Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
     I upgraded my distritution from debian jessie to stretch.
     Under jessie i didnt had this problem.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
     I have a custom filter with approx. 1300 entries for blocking specific file types
     which are used by cryptolockers. I use this filter to protect my samba shares.
     After the upgrade, fail2ban failed to start with an timeout error.
