Счетчик повторов блока fail2ban всегда изменяется

Как ясно сказано в заголовке, fail2ban счетчик повторных попыток всегда изменяется. Я установил для всех повторных попыток значение 3; но иногда это блокирует меня после 6 или 7 попыток. Как установить постоянное значение его поведения? Я добавил свой jail.local содержимое файла ниже. я использую Ubuntu Server 12.04 64 бит у всех хостов.

jail.local

# Fail2Ban configuration file.

# This file was composed for Debian systems from the original one
#  provided now under /usr/share/doc/fail2ban/examples/jail.conf
#  for additional examples.

# To avoid merges during upgrades DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE
# and rather provide your changes in /etc/fail2ban/jail.local

# DNS Servers


# These jails block attacks against named (bind9). By default, logging is off
# with bind9 installation. You will need something like this:
#
# logging {
#     channel security_file {
#         file "/var/log/named/security.log" versions 3 size 30m;
#         severity dynamic;
#         print-time yes;
#     };
#     category security {
#         security_file;
#     };
# };
#
# in your named.conf to provide proper logging

# Word of Caution:
# Given filter can lead to DoS attack against your DNS server
# since there is no way to assure that UDP packets come from the
# real source IP
