Thanks for that link Greg.
I am testing it on my system, and it seems to work nicely.
There is one little issue I don't know what to do about.
Every once in a while I get a message in my email with:
grep: /tmp/badip.good: No such file or directory
grep: /tmp/badip.good: No such file or directory
I like getting the messages from cron.minutely letting me know that it has
blocked an ip address, but I would rather not get these error messages.
I don't know why it's even giving an error, because the badip.good file does
exist.
Any suggestions?
Gregg.
