- rlvesco7 15y agoDoes fail2ban work against brute force distributed attacks? I've noticed a few attacks that seem to be orchestrated from the same people but using different IPs.
- nuclear_eclipse 15y agoIt doesn't specifically target distributed attacks, but I'm not really sure how something like that could know whether incoming requests are part of a botnet or ligitimate logins.
