Hi, guys |

Recently I was looking through my logs when I got pissed off (again) by |
| 4 |
the big number of lines showing something like 'sshd: auth. error: |
| 5 |
unknown user "XXX" from "some IP address"'. I wrote a script which |
| 6 |
automatically sets all connections from those IP addresses to be |
| 7 |
dropped. Next I decided to change "-j DROP" with "-j TARPIT" and I |
| 8 |
realized that gentoo-sources doesn't provide the netfilter target "TARPIT". |

My question: what is the best way get this iptables module working w/o |
| 11 |
diverting too much from the official Gentoo installation. I mean the |
| 12 |
normal way is to use patch-o-matic to patch iptables source and vanilla |
| 13 |
kernel source, then build and install. I have the feeling that it is not |
| 14 |
exactly the right thing to with Gentoo. |

Any advices would be much appreciated. |
