I've seen pam_shield recommended several times for protecting against malicious login attempts; but I'm not quite clear if this requires one to be already running some pam-based software?
Also, I'm running shorewall, and would prefer a shorewall based protection, but the advice I read on googling for this seemed excessively complicated.
