Instead of checking multiple bad usernames before blocking the ip the 
login attempt came from.  Can Denyhosts check multiple usernames coming 
from the same IP and block that criteria instead of tracking a per 
username bases.  The attacks I'm seeing will only try one username and 
password combo and then try a completely different username and password 
but still be from the same IP.  So if Denyhosts could track this it 
could block multiple failed login attempts from a single ip using only 
one attack per username.  This will also clean up the logs quite a bit.  
If Denyhosts already does this how do I set it up?

Thanks
