I'd also like to urge folks who are planning to attend, to get your

 Look at ports/security/sshguard and ports/security/bruteblock.

 I use sshguard with ipfilter, but it works with pf and ipfw as well.
 It is very simple to set up and gets the job done.

 Hi just wanted to say thanks for stating this as I'm also looking for a
 BSD version of fail2ban which I couldn't find in the FreeBSD ports
 collection..

 security/py-fail2ban

Doesn't FreeBSD's version of pf support the overload feature?  This is
how we typically manage ssh bruteforce attempts in OpenBSD/pf-land.
