Another good one is http://denyhosts.sourceforge.net/
It runs as a daemon, and can either ban IP's addresses all together, or just ban certain services.

You could try something like this:
http://freshmeat.net/projects/blocksshd/
From there readme:
BlockSSHD is a Perl script based on BruteForceBlocker v1.2.3 that dynamically adds IPTables rules for Linux and pf firewall rules for BSD that block SSH brute force attacks. It can also detect ProFTPd login failures.
Cheers, Mike

Hi All,
So I have a series of funny guys that are constantly trying to brute force my FTP server. They are always in China, India or Japan, of course.
Unfortunately my clients do exchange emails with some people in China and Japan so I can't just block off the entire region (as much as I'd love to).
Does anyone have suggestions on how I can script IPTables or put some other security measure in place that could detect brute-forcing and reject from their IP?
Thanks
