I "love" seeing the bots that try huge password lists. I notice in a log where a given moron will try someone else's entire password list on my machine... I find it even more interesting to see the same IP try the exact same list multiple times in a 20 minute span... I also find it interesting to see several different hosts using the same password list, sometimes at the same time (interleaved logs get confusing) -Tom -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of David Tonhofer, m-plify S.A.

I thought SSH(2) used hosts.deny & hosts.allow. I find it interesting, then, that I get so many (L)users trying to hack my SSH connection. Any thoughts? Maybe I missed something in my setup? > > -Tom > > -- > redhat-list mailing list > unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list > > > -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subjecthttps://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
