Thread: ssh getting hammered by login attempts... is this normal?


i'm wondering how normal server hammered login attempts? (kinda comical amount of different names used...)

there way configure linux kill connection after 3 failed attempts?

setting ssh use random port help?

or have resort blocking , white listing ip's use?

help, i've used linux years, first server it... quite pleasant experience except damn hackers without life knocking on door...

yup, totally normal. there lots of automated login attempts, too.

did read security sticky? check out ssh ubuntu page, too.
