Anyway, you could use /etc/hosts.allow
eg
sshd:111.222.333.444 222.333.444.111 ....:deny
to deny any ssh login from those IP addresses (Note you MUST make sure
What happens when you try to connect from one of those addresses?
Does it come back quickly as "connection refused", or timeout as if the
server didn't exist?
The iptables looks the same trying to connect to my server as it does
trying to connect to a non-existent server, which I think is handy.
if /etc/hosts.allow works at the same level of obscurity, it does look
easier to administer, and I might switch to that.
