Hi Gang,

Every now and then I review a logwatch that's full of a long 
dictionary-style probe of my web server.  Does anyone have any personal 
anecdotes regarding tools that detect a series of 404s (or other errors) 
from a single client and create a firewall rule to block that client for 
some period of time?

Thanks,
~Brian
