denyhosts: A script to help thwart ssh server attacks

Name:	denyhosts	Vendor:	http://www.karan.org
Version:	2.3	License:	GPL
Release:	2.el4.kb	URL:	http://denyhosts.sourceforge.net/

Summary

DenyHosts is a Python script that analyzes the sshd server log messages to determine which hosts are attempting to hack into your system. It also determines what user accounts are being targeted. It keeps track of the frequency of attempts from each host and, upon discovering a repeated attack host, updates the /etc/hosts.deny file to prevent future break-in attempts from that host. Email reports can be sent to a system admin.
