Brute force attack ~ FreeBSD
Those regular ssh attacks to my web server have been bugging me now for some time. Those jerks needed to be taught a lesson.
This evening I gathered up my courage and decided to finally do something about it. Printed out a document about firewalling, studied them well and became an expert in no time.
So I fired up the good old PF packet filter firewall, added a simple pass rule which inserts the baddies into a table, blocking them for good.
That's more like it.
