Hullo the list.. I have a box at home, running fedora core 1, behind a router, which I use for serving some dev webpages, and some other miscelaneous stuff.. I'm seeing lots of ssh login attempts with user=root from two or three IP addresses, after I blocked access at the firewall based on host. Can anyone point me at some good resources where I can bone up and learn more about counter-measures.... I'm not looking to take this guy out (although would'nt be a bad thing).. But would be interesting to find out more. tia a This document should only be read by those persons to whom it is addressed and is not intended to be relied upon by any person without subsequent written confirmation of its contents.
