Hi,

I'm looking at my daily logwatch mail and I find something like this:

sshd:
   Authentication Failures:
      unknown (200.110.185.21): 129 Time(s)

Of course, I can move the SSH port to something else, but I'm looking
for a more elegant solution.

I want to have my Linux machine an ability to let ssh login at the
same port, but only allow an IP to test login 3 times.
After that, if it fails, this IP should be banned from SSH to this machine..

Is there such a PAM module or any program/library/config which can do
this, or do I need to "roll my own"?

Thanks,
Hetz
