Its designed to work with APF also from RxNetworks. I believe this is what you are looking for. http://rfxnetworks.com/bfd.php BFD (Brute Force Detection) BFD is a modular shell script for parsing applicable logs and checking for authentication failures. There is not much complexity or detail to BFD yet and likewise it is very straight-forward in its installation, configuration and usage. The reason behind BFD is very simple; the fact there is little to no authentication and brute force auditing programs in the linux community that work in conjunction with a firewall or real-time facility to place bans. Note: BFD default configuration is designed to work in conjunction with APF versions 0.9.3+ -- Mike Ramirez <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
