Subject: Re: Brute force attack - need your advice
To clarify my last post. I agree with alan.
I mean it will help with the low hanging fruit. and I didn't get that
deep into how to run his auth. Thanks for adding. also disable remote
root access su to root if you need that. root=localhost only.
port knocking works very well too.
Thanks again for the add alan
