Package: sshguard
Version: 1.5-2~bpo60+1
Severity: normal
-- System Information:
Debian Release: 6.0.3
APT prefers stable-updates
APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable')
Architecture: x86_64 GNU/Linux
Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-x86_64
Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8)
Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash
In /etc/default/sshguard there is the following line:
ARGS="-a 4 -p 420 -s 1200"
-a 4
seems too low for me, as that means that when trying to login with ssh with an
unknown user to the sshguarded host, You will be blocked at the first failed
login. Seems to be a little bit harsh to me.
The sshguard default value for -a is 40, that means you get blocked only after
four failed logins. So maybe it's just a typo, as the other values are sshguard
defaults, too.

Closing these bugs by hand, I don't know why the BTS didn't close them.
Kind regards,
