Mates,

I am trying to configure hosts.deny to deny all access to APNIC IP's. I
am also looking for any additional ideas that you have found that work to
deny other notorious scrip kiddie addresses as well. So if you have a good
hosts.deny file you wouldn't mind posting or sharing, I would welcome the
help. The apnic ranges I have found so far come from:
http://www.apnic.net/db/ranges.html The hosts.deny file I have put together
from that looks like the following. What is everybody else doing to cut down
on the annoying sshd/ftp etc.. attempts?

# /etc/hosts.deny
# See 'man tcpd' and 'man 5 hosts_access' as well as /etc/hosts.allow
# for a detailed description.

# Excluded APNIC Ranges
ALL : 210.
ALL : 211.
ALL : 58.
ALL : 60.
ALL : 121.
ALL : 122.
ALL : 126.
ALL : 169.208.
ALL : 196.192.
ALL : 202.
ALL : 203.
ALL : 210.
ALL : 218.
ALL : 220.
ALL : 222.
