Right now, I'm just trying to take some load off my home server from badbots but I am getting hit on other services as well.
Another possibility for you to look at is sshguard. It can protect against brute force ssh attacks (using iptables rules, which is how I use it) but IIRC it can also protect against http attacks (I've never used it that way, so I don't know how difficult this is).
I use fail2ban, provides similar functionality like sshguard + Apache mod_evasive (for http DoS attacks).
[Thomas E Dukes] I use it as well with denyhosts.
Its on like donkey kong with these badbots!! LOL!!
Thanks!!
