Getting hack attempts, using Astaro

MAiN_PRoToCoL
I have noobs trying to break into my Astaro SSH and Windows Remote Desktop guessing a million usernames and passwords combos.

But I thought astaro could pick up this stuff and kill it. At the very least it's own SSH server.  Its not, letting a people try and try.


So my question is, can I make my own rules or something to let astaro recognize this? Or call up astaro and tell them to get some.

    Excellent suggestion, William!

    MAiN_PRoToCoL, thanks for being so active!   Check my Post #2 on the thread about WebAdmin for my suggestion on limiting outside access to WebAdmin - that also applies to SSH.

    Also, with SSH, you might to 'Allow public key authentication' and eliminate auth by passwords.  You can use puttygen to create your personal RSA key and then use that to login as root with putty, WinSCP, etc.

    Cheers - Bob
