There's also a tool written by me which can be found in security/bruteforceblocker - you may read a bit about it on http://danger.rulez.sk/index.php/bruteforceblocker/. The official release currently works only with pf, but I know there's a person working towards porting it to ipf/ipfw. He recently ported it to iptables and added CIDR support for whitelists, but I haven't had a time to review his changes, however once I get to it I will release a new version. -- Best regards Daniel Geržo _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
