Has anyone found any good scripts or utilities for automating this kind of thing? I too have been subject to these probings, and my initial thought was to firewall off any address after any number of incorrect attempts. While I could write a script to parse the ipfilter logs, I didn't want to go re-inventing the wheel for something which I was sure someone would have already attempted. Anyone have any suggestions?
