I'm no expert of iptables, and it seems like it can handle banning IP's that are trying to register and fail too many times.

Is there a good iptables configuration that I could use as reference?

Gordon Henderson posted a link to his script that handled failures above a threshold and some other cool stuff a few months back.

Try searching the archives.

Have a look at these:

That's a very basic iptables firewall script. You can not run this as-is, you will need to chang it.

This:

  http://unicorn.drogon.net/firewall2

is a bit more complicated. It includes some more stateful rules to check and automatically slow-down bulk connections. It's not perfect, but it could be used as a starting point for your own thing. A word of warning though - it's not suitable for light-weight/embedded devices. These rules can result in significant kernel processing.

You may also wish to look at this:

It's a blog post by Andrey Filippov based on some of my work and some of his own. It's all good stuff.
