I'm not sure where the book stands on scripts-as-software, but I've written a 
set of scripts (that can run as a daemon or just as a scanning-only-tool) that 
creates entries in /etc/hosts.deny for folks who have tcpwrappers-enabled SSH 
servers running on public IPs:

        https://github.com/qrux/deny-ssh

There the script that does the work, a script that "daemonizes" that one, and a 
bootscript.  Of course I know about DenyHosts (which inspired what I did), but 
I dislike bloat, and a shell-script version appealed to me (and perhaps other 
"minimalists" who use LFS/BLFS).
