Ignorant question on pam_shield

[Timothy Murphy <gayleard@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I've seen pam_shield recommended several times
for protecting against malicious login attempts;
but I'm not quite clear if this requires one
to be already running some pam-based software?

Also, I'm running shorewall,
and would prefer a shorewall based protection,
but the advice I read on googling for this
seemed excessively complicated.
