Hello,

I am currently looking for a good / reliable solution that I could use
to implement a way in which we could drop connections that are
attempting to dictionary attack the servers ssh daemon.

We often have customers that have several thousand entries in their log
files where people have tried known usernames and a common list of
passwords. Because we have a fairly secure (complex) password procedure
in place they dont generally break in. However the customers getting on
our case about it is annoying.

Does anyone know of a solution that would facilite something like that?
