Hi,

I'm running freebsd 7-RELEASE

I see this, for example, in my auth log:

May 15 02:00:39 www sshd[9180]: Invalid user web from 201.18.232.30

May 15 02:01:47 www sshd[9252]: Invalid user apache from 201.18.232.30

I'd like it to be so that if an IP tries to connect to sshd more than
once in a 30 second period, that they are immediately blackholed.
Should I be using pf for this or would it be done better in some other
utility?

cheers
