i have heard of vispan, phplistadmin, spamstat from the mailscanner manual and
would like to experiment with them.

2. I have googled for their centos rpms but no luck? Any ideas
Yes, I have found this is a limitation of yum. It would be nice if the
information about the source repository could be stored somewhere.
If these were installed after the initial OS installation, and you haven't
done a yum clean, you might be able to glean some info from the cache:

Hi Linux Advocate,

manually specify a mirror rather than relying on the fastest mirror

This is common, and, presuming you have good passwords or only
accept authorized_keys, not a real problem other than large log
files.
Look at fail2ban for a method that will automatically add
iptables blocks when this occurs.
yes
That program would then, upon receiving a 'sniff' or 'user' would then add
that ip to the deny hosts lists..for either a long or short time.
Using this would seem like a win as you can easily grab someone before they
can get somewhere one hopes.
Also, by opening up a few other ports
get ;
1. fail2ban - it blocks failed login ips etc
2. get shorewall or any iptables front end and restrict ips to the ranges u
need ( or even specific ips)
3. run ssh on a nonstandard port
4. good, long password
these steps will go a long way and will get u started.
