Hi, In /etc/default/sshguard there is the following line: > > ARGS="-a 4 -p 420 -s 1200" > > -a 4 > seems too low for me, as that means that when trying to login with ssh > with an unknown user to the sshguarded host, You will be blocked at the > first failed login. Seems to be a little bit harsh to me. > > The sshguard default value for -a is 40, that means you get blocked only > after four failed logins. So maybe it's just a typo, as the other values > are sshguard defaults, too.
Thanks to report it. This bug was fixed in sshguard 1.5-4 in unstable: http://bugs.debian.org/638225 However I am a bit busy but I will work on squeeze-backport the next weeks.
