The SLES 15 SP4 release notes explicitly mention fail2ban being added to the Basesystem module: https://www.suse.com/releasenotes/x86_64/SUSE-SLES/15-SP4/index.html#jsc-SLE-11611 > 5.11.4 fail2ban has been added > The fail2ban package has been added to the Basesystem Module. It is used to ban addresses that make too many authentication failures, based on scanning various log files. I expected this to apply to openSUSE Leap 15.4 as well, especially that Leap is now shipping SLES binaries since 15.3. Unfortunately on a Leap 15.4 system, fail2ban is nowhere to be found according to 'zypper search'. Is this an oversight, or an intentional omission? I would hope everything shipped in SLES (at least the modules which aren't a separate subscription) was also available in the corresponding release of Leap, except for obvious things like branding and subscription management.
