Take a look at DenyHosts
http://denyhosts.sourceforge.net/index.html
very flexible & configurable. Run out of cron at a schedule of your
choosing it will black hole the offending IPs via hosts.deny
Browsing some tutorials weeks ago, I came across ``BlackHosts[0]'', a
python-script that might be a convenient solution to cut down on
whatever annonyance these automated SSH brute-force attacks cause. I
say _might_ because I have not tested the script.
