Hey guys,
I keep getting people trying to brute-force their way into one of my servers via proftpd... Now, I'm not too concerned about them gaining access, but it's becoming a huge thorn in my side and it bothers me because they are allowed about 25,000 attempts before their IP is banned. How do I make it so their IP is banned after... say... 50 failed attempts? Any help would be appreciated! And while we're on the topic, is there any other type of security I could put in place on my servers for not only ftp but other attacks as well? Thanks guys!
