* Package name : libpam-abl Version : 0.2.2 Upstream Author : Andy Armstrong <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.hexten.net/pam_abl/ * License : BSD or GPL Description : PAM module to blacklist hosts/users with many login failures This PAM module automatically adds hosts and/or users with many authentication failures in pre-defined time intervals to a temporary blacklist. While blacklisted, any authentication attempt will silently fail, pretending the given authentication credentions are wrong. After the pre-defined blacklist interval, the host/user will be unbanned again. Thus, this module provides effective protection against the password guessing attacks agaings ssh servers seen lastly in the internet. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
