[Lvlug] Finally, someone's trying to hack in. :-)

[Stuart Boreen]

I remember reading about a script/program that looks for 3 
failed attempts at ssh login, then blocks that ip with 
iptables -- or something like that.
Anyone on the list see this in Linuxjournal?
Do you know anyone who could run ping -f from a very well 
connected datacenter?  (Just kidding)
