Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Who is trying to break in ?
I use fail2ban on my OpenIndiana machine. I opted to compile it because the one around for OI are pretty old. There were no issues. If I remember, I did use the svc files from one of these packages but I might have whipped up my own. I also moved my ssh port to 222 just because of the frequency ssh was getting hit. I rarely see an attempt to connect from a bot.

If you want to block them I suggest the Tool fail2ban. I use it on my Linux boxes and it works like a charm. There also seems to be a Port for snv_134 https://github.com/jamesstout/fail2ban-0.8.4-OpenSolaris but I haven't tested that.

Greetings Till ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss Got no qualms about ssh (or openvpn) on port 443 - indeed, if one sets up something non-standard, gotta be ready for the consequences. And to all ids'es and sniffers, cryptotraffic looks much the same (different dynamic flow patterns may be discerned by the smarter filters out there though). As was said earlier, many networks (especially free wifi, and some cellulars) only allow http(s) outwards, so there's not much choice for road-workers. Also, there are server-side projects to colocate frontends for https and ssh or openvpn on the same socket to veil it even more. -- Typos courtesy of K-9 Mail on my Samsung Android ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
