IPBan One Click Install for Windows and Linux
IPBan now has a simple one click install for Windows, simply run the following from an admin powershell prompt:
iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DigitalRuby/IPBan/master/IPBanCore/Windows/Scripts/install_latest.ps1'))
If you have any concerns about running a powershell script from a url, please try the url in your browser and review the code:
The same powershell script can be used with a uninstall
argument should you ever need to remove IPBan from a system.
For reference, here is the Linux one click install script:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DigitalRuby/IPBan/master/IPBanCore/Linux/Scripts/Install.sh.
The Linux script can be executed as follows:
sudo -i; bash <(wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DigitalRuby/IPBan/master/IPBanCore/Linux/Scripts/Install.sh)
May these scripts serve you well in securing your servers.
Have a wonderful day!

Can I to install ipban without pro subscription?
The free trial allows two installations for 30 day trial period
recently realized how configurable ipban is…. can also be configured to protect an emby server!
would be really cool if we could put together a list of custom configs for various other things? would help noobs keep security in check
nonetheless thanks for the efforts!
Would love to know more, what are you thinking here?
As a less experienced user this feature makes all the difference. Thank you Jeff!
You are very welcome 🙂
Can I run same script again and again to upgrade to newer version?
Yes. On Windows I have it preserving the ipban.sqlite and ipban.config files. I still need to update the Linux script to do this. I will do that now.
Ok it’s updated now for Linux too 🙂
I didn’t know you had Linux version. How IPBan compares / differs to default fail2ban?
It should be able to do everything fail2ban can do, along with (in my opinion) being more performant and easier to configure.
