OpenSSH

[Ray Bell]

I'm trying to configure ssh to not allow certain i.p. address with a particular subnet to connect to my main server. I know that the file /opt/ssh/ssdh_config need to be update. I don't know the correct syntax:
DenyHosts "@XXX.XX.XX.XX"

Can someone assist me with the correct syntax so I can get this working.

Hello,

Try this

DenyHosts xxx.xx.xx.*, xxx.xx.xx.*


Be sure to bounce the sshd daemon afterward

Hope this helps
Chris

From the O'Reily SSH book

DenyHosts example.com

hostname or ip address is allowed.

It gave me a configuration error when I try to start the ssh up again. I type in what you specified..
DenyHosts xxx.xx.xx.*

I'm going to try just the one i.p. addres now and will add the rest later. But the syntax is still giving me an error.
