Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : libpam-abl
  Version         : 0.2.3

  Description     : blacklist hosts and users after failed authentication attempts

 A PAM module that provides auto blacklisting of hosts and users
 responsible for repeated failed authentication attempts. Generally
 configured so that blacklisted users still see normal login prompts but
 are guaranteed to fail to authenticate.


This was posted in the thread[1] about ssh brute force mitigation and seems
really useful to have.

Thanks in advance, David Schmitt

Hello,

This is an automatic mail sent to close the ITP you have reported or 
are involved with.

Your ITP wnpp bug is being closed because of the following reasons:
- It is, as of today, older than 365 days.
- It hasn't had any activity recently.

As this is an automatic procedure, it could of course have something
wrong and probably it would be closing some bugs that are not 
intended by owners and submitters (like you) to be closed, for
example if the ITP is still of your interest, or there has been 
some kind of activity around it. In that case, please reopen the
bug, do it, DO IT NOW! (I don't want to be blamed because of
mass closing and not let people know that they can easily reopen
their bugs ;-).

To re-open it, you simply have to mail control@bugs.debian.org
with a body text like this:

 reopen 356733
 stop

Further comments on the work done in the bug sent to
356733@bugs.debian.org would be truly welcomed.
Anyway, if you have any kind of problems when dealing with
the BTS, feel free to contact me and I'd be more than happy to help
you on this: <damog@debian.org>.

A similar process is being applied to other kind of wnpp bugs.

Thanks for your cooperation,

 -- David Moreno Garza <damog@debian.org>.
