Hello,

I was wondering if there's some sort of port available that can actively ban IPs that try and bruteforce a service such as SSH or Telnet, by scanning the /var/log/auth.log log for Regex such as "Illegal User" or "LOGIN FAILURES", and then using IPFW to essentially deny (ban) that IP for a certain period of time or possibly forever.

I've seen a very useful one that works for linux (fail2ban), and was wondering if one exists for FreeBSD's IPFW?

I've looked around in /usr/ports/security and /usr/ports/net but can't seem to find anything that closely resembles that.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.... Thanks in advance!
