fail2ban not banning

[geese]

I need some help with fail2ban on opensuse 11.2.
Everything seems to be configured properly but it does not ban.

I edited the jail.conf, snippet -

[ssh-iptables]

enabled  = false
filter   = sshd 
action   = iptables[name=SSH, port=ssh, protocol=tcp]
           sendmail-whois[name=SSH, dest=you@mail.com, sender=fail2ban@mail.com]
#logpath  = /var/log/sshd.log                                                   
logpath  = /var/log/messages                                                    
maxretry = 5

And when i run

fail2ban-regex /var/log/messages /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/sshd.conf

I get "Success, the total number of match is 80"

Yet it does not ban. I'm sure it has to be something simple. Can anyone help.

Thanks, Geese.

*sigh* I feel so stupid now. This has been buging for over a week but figured it out by looking at my own post. "enabled = false" has to be "enabled = true".
