Fail2ban still protects you since there are fewer (version 4) IP addresses in the world than combinations needed to guess a good password. However, to reduce noise it helps to avoid easily guessable usernames (coinciding with domain name, for instance) or add random suffix to them, e.g. admin.fuifcgju68 (in *addition* to having a good long random password). -- With Best Regards, Marat Khalili ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Fail2ban-users mailing list Fail2ban-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fail2ban-users
