Package: sshguard
Version: 1.5-3
Severity: important
According to the man page, the default parameter for -a is 40, but in the
/etc/default/sshguard shipped with Debian it is set to 4.
That looks like a typo, as the other values there are in fact the default
values. Moreover a value of 4 means every IP gets blocked
after one perceived attack (an attack is worth 10 'dangerousness' points),
making the default install not useful in any practical
setting.
Best regards,
P.
