How to ban brute force attack throught ftp?

is there any way to detect & ban brute force attacks throught ftp service?

thks in advanced,a daemon or something

 

this here http://www.howtoforge.com/preventing_ssh_dictionary_attacks_with_denyhosts works only for SSH... but maybe Falko knows how to alter that that it works for ftp also... or just any port...

 

I found this here: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/342

 

If you prefer a Perl script instead of Python you could try out a Perl hack of mine called LogSentry. Monitors ssh and ftp logs. Pretty much the same funcionality as BlockHosts I guess but I was unaware of BlockHosts when I needed it.
It supports OpenSSH and vsftpd.
