1 I recently check my log files and discovered that there was a dictionary
2 attack attempt on my daemons. sshd and vsftpd were the primary targets. Is
3 there a script or tool to block the offending IP addresses using iptables.
4 Something that checks to see if a minimum of attempts has occured and blocks
5 them indefinitely based on that?
