There's a python script that I've been using effectively for a while

It requires a little tweaking in the configuration file for Gentoo, but does a good job of curbing abuse.

Hey all,

I'm looking for an app/script which can monitor for failed ssh logins,
and block using IPTables for $time after $number of failed logins (an
exclusion list would be handy as well) so that I can put a quick stop to
these niggly brute-force ssh "attacks" I seem to be getting more and
more often.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks, Jeremy B
