[Tfug] Throttling SSHD

[Mike Martinet]

Hey Folks,

A while back, someone wrote in about throttling or filtering IPs which
generated numerous bogus login attempts to the ssh daemon.  I can't find
my copy of that mail - can someone please repost or reply off-list with
the instructions for locking out an IP after a certain number of failed
logins?

This is getting out of hand!

Thanks,
