Re ject user/ip number after a number of login retry attempts

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have had someone try to hack Squirelmail 1.4.15 web page by sending multiple user names 1 after another for an infinite time or until they eventually crack it, it is a DoS for other users trying to login. Is there some way after say 3 attempts/failures to login to reject/block ip number for say 1 hour/day before another retry attempt from same ip number. My setup here is Debian Lenny, Postfix and Squirrelmail 1.4.15
