List members - I am running OpenSSH on my home gentoo server. I was examining the log files for OpenSSH and I noticed multiple login attempts from the same IP address but with different user names. Is there a simple way that I can block an IP address from attempting to log in after something like 3 failed login attempts?
My Gentoo box is connected to a linksys router connected to my cable modem, the linksys is doing port forwarding to my gentoo box. Also, I would like to avoid limiting which IP addresses can log into my SSH server Thanks for any ideas, James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
