you simply log every failed login attempt, and put a copy of their ipaddresses in a file, a file which firehol reads, and blocks (with iptables) every single address in it
it shouldn't be that hard to fix

Im assuming someones going to tell me to write a bash script that will echo ip's into hosts.deny
id rather not, unless someone can write the bash script for me!
i never really got into bash.. heh..
