We also run fail2ban at work. Very nice, installs (along with shorewall), and creates a temporary blacklist, blocking an IP that's tried five, I think, times to break in. All configurable, btw.
There is also denyhosts, which performs a very similar function. I believe both are available from the rpmforge repository (and probably in EPEL too if you prefer that repo).
