RE: Stop Brute Force Attack on SSH

I got this working. The issue was that the service install command listed the pid file, but so does the config. Also, the /etc/host.deny did not exist. Again, thanks so much for your help Kyle -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http:/

Yes, reading the readme file, I found that the pid file name. I changed it to the normal path /var/run/denyhost.pid But when it starts it stall says the same error: DenyHosts could not obtain lock (pid: ) [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/lock/subsys/denyhosts' I change the -x option

RE: Stop Brute Force Attack on SSH

Yes, currently I disable root, disable password, (only allow keys). The one idea I had as a last resort was to change the port from 22. Doing this would require all users to update their client side. I was hoping to make a change on the server, some software that could help protect ssh. -
