* Package name : authfail Version : 1.0.1 Upstream Author : Bartosz M. Krajnik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.bmk.bz/authfail/ * License : GPL Description : Netfilter REJECT/DROP for hosts with too many "auth failure" This program reads data from FIFO file and adds REJECT/DROP for hosts into Netfilter after some attempts of failed logins. If someone tries to log into your system and you see many "authentication failure" in you auth.log from one IP, you just add this IP into your ACL. If anybody is interested in this little piece of code, a draft package exist on http://olivier-lemaire.org/debian/dists/sarge/main/ ... I'll upload source to mentors in an minute. Interested in any comments about this package (my first debian package using init.d scripts: I'm still discovering the great dbhelper). -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.27-1-386 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Cheers, -- Olivier LEMAIRE, aka LEM http://olivier-lemaire.org/
