Re: [Sshguard-users] Is sshguard working?

[<li...@la...>]

Is that rule the only line I need to add to get sshguard locking out the bad boys? I've been waiting for the documentation. ‎Not that I'm bugging anyone. ;-) I know I'm dealing with volunteers.

I've attached the patch that fixes 'ipfw' support. You can generate this
yourself by running:

$ git diff v1.6.1 origin/1.6

Most of this diff consists of deletions. You can safely ignore the hunk
that deletes 'src/fwalls/ipfw.c' if you're putting this in ports.

Keep in mind that in order to use this, users will have to add a rule to
their 'ipfw' ruleset that blocks addresses from table 22:

# ipfw add 50000 deny ip from table\(22\) to me

This will likely change in 1.7, where I think I'll have sshguard insert
this rule automatically. Apologies for the trouble here. I don't think
the release plan of backporting bug fixes is working too well; I'm
thinking about making releases at regular intervals from 'master'
instead. But that's a whole different topic.

Thanks,
Kevin Zheng
