Re: [OT] TOP-POSTING

What you did and I am doing in reply because I am human and can adapt
to fellow humans is called top posting. If you'd posted your comments
inline and below the signature instead that is what the other folks
who are pedantic about correct behavior and intolerant of differences
insist is the one and only true way to post email. I sometimes get
nasty with them.

Bottom posting is often a somewhat easier to read. So it is recommended.

Sorry I do not know what top posting is. I run Thunderbird 1.5.0.4, and
this is the default setup with a signature.
I this the incorrect format ?

Guillermo,

though using gmail with a default, please learn to not top-post and
especially to avoid unnecessary quoting.

denyhosts does not use iptables, but tcp-wrappers.

If it is just about SSH login attempts by script kids I can say from
long experience that changing the SSHD port to something non default
(so far) keeps them at the gates, means no special blocking setup is
required. Though it can be a good decision to use pam_abl to cover
other cases and protect all services using PAM (as Nicolas already
mentioned).
