jra at baylink Oct 19, 2007, 9:50 AM Views: 3787 Permalink Semi-OT: Blocking Brute Force SSH attacks If you've tunneled SSH traffic through to your Mythbox, you're likely the target of brute-force SSH attacks, some of which might well work. The most elegant solution I've found so far is here: http://www.la-samhna.de/library/brutessh.html#5 This won't block attacks that "know" about a specific bug in your sshd, so you need to stay updated, but for the dictionary attacks it will work nicely, and it'll sure keep your logs from growing without bounds...
