Here's a question..

Running FreeBSD 4.2-Release. I've noticed in our /var/log/messages file a
number of repeated attempts at anonymous FTP (like 100 in very very rapid
succession).

I email abuse@domain with the info and hope they culprit gets hit over the
wrist with a ruler.

Is there a way to block access by that person?

For instance...

pD4B88246.dip.t-dialin.net

tried to Anon FTP in a hundred times. Is there a something I can do on that
FreeBSD machine to say completely ignore any further requests from
pD4B88246.dip.t-dialin.net?

-Gerry
