blockad
=======

blockad is a daemon that monitors your logfiles for persistent
break-in attempts and blocks further connections, either using the
system's firewall or using TCP wrappers (hosts.deny).

** I will not be maintaining blockad any more. **
** I have switched to an alternative solution. **

Requirements
============

blockad only runs on Linux.  You will need GNU C++ to build it.

Installation
============

  ./configure
  make
  sudo make install

See 'man blockad' for documentation.

There is an example config file in examples/blockad.conf and an
example init script in examples/blockad.init.
