By default OpenSSH _logs_ after three keys but it only gives up (if you don't have a fail2ban script blowing everything up) after six keys. And you can reconfigure the server as appropriate, unlike whatever this "active firewall" (which by the sound of things may just be a fail2ban script) does. This is a bad fail2ban script, it's inconveniencing real users rather than targeting the bots you care about since they are doing password guessing anyway. |
