BSD

Hi there

I'm looking for anti hack software. I want a few types.

1. User monitoring. If anyone tries to login 3 or more times with the wrong info.. that user should be cut off for 15 minutes

2. Permanent IP Blocking - it would be great to have a user friendly/faster method of Permanent IP blocking - currently I edit the hosts allow.

Any suggestions for Unix FreeBSD would really be appreciated.

I think It is kind hard to find such softwares for *BSD, you have to do It yourself through scripts

I am also interested in such an anti-hacker approach to banning offending IP addresses based on their continued attempts to login to phpadmin, mysqladmin, etc.

You can do it in BSD.
Try bruteblock in the ports. It can monitoring the log of a service, like ftp, ssh.
If the Ip logged to be error login, for how many time you specify in any hour / day, you can block it for as long as you want.

it works using ipfw or PF, you can chose ..

hope helps
