Perhaps... but think of the hours of fun you could have if you setup a dummy 
ftp server for him to hack away at.  Fill it with encrypted copies of 
directions to disneyland and name them all something like "bank_passwords.txt". 
 

Elegance is overated when compared to retribution.

  Such an ugly workaround for something that is ideally as simple as:
  iptables -A INPUT --src xx.xx.xx.xx --dport 21 -j DROP

    Just a thought-   how about efw outbound rules to block traffic from behind
    efw that has a destination of the ip you want to block?  Getting nothing
    back might dissuade him from trying further.  Or, put a port forward rule at
    the top of your list that forwards ftp ports to a non existant internal IP
    when the source IP is the one that is hacking you.

    Might work.
