Feature Request: More Variables in ProcessToRunOnBan

[Mr-Rayman]

Hi there,

thanks for your great software!

In my ipban configuration I use 'ProcessToRunOnBan' with variable ###IPADDRESS### to call a script that sends an email whenever a block action occured.

It would be nice to know from what Source the blocking action came, since different sources have different criticality for me. So please consider providing an additional variable (e.g. ###SOURCE###) for 'ProcessToRunOnBan' that contains the source/log file in which the block event occoured. (Or maybe this exists already and I didn't see it in the documentation?)

Thanks!
Stefan

It should work as you describe. I'll update the docs.

Can you please advise what may be wrong

C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe|C:\IPBan\report_abuse_db.ps1|###IPADDRESS###|###SOURCE###

[jjxtra]

Also I don't support the abuse ip db scripts and would recommend ipthreat as it is a 100% free service doing the same thing as abuseip db

Newline separate the processes I believe

[jjxtra]

Yes, separate each process|arguments pair with a newline.

Sir

Is this correct? or need some change

<add key="ProcessToRunOnBan" value="C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe|C:\IPBan\report_abuse_db.ps1|###IPADDRESS###|###SOURCE###"/>

[jjxtra]

<add key="ProcessToRunOnBan" value="C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe|C:\IPBan\report_abuse_db.ps1 ###IPADDRESS### ###SOURCE###"/>

[jjxtra]

If that does not work, try

<add key="ProcessToRunOnBan" value="C:\IPBan\report_abuse_db.ps1|###IPADDRESS### ###SOURCE###"/>

[gotspatel]

sure thank you will update here which works

[gotspatel]

I am already contributing to ipthreat.net and this is not just for abuseipdb I am asking but a generic question that in case of passign multiple parameters is this the correct format/way
