set the following line
FW_SERVICES_ACCEPT_EXT="0/0,tcp,22,,hitcount=3,blockseconds=120,recentname=ssh"
in /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2 This will limit to a maximum of 3 attempts per 120s.
This works *very* well, even better than fail2ban, imo. Is there a similar line that will effect the same on postifx attempts rather than using fail2ban? tks, -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
