ipfw add deny all from 80.192.49.213 to me Although you need to take into consideration your existing IPFW rules, as this will not work if a previous rule allows the connection. > Also how do I block out IPs after a certain number of invalid login > attempts to prevent brute forcing? There are a number of ports that provide this functionality. I believe the most popular is called denyhosts. -- Bill Moran Collaborative Fusion Inc. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
