---- how to block an ip


adwhite - 11:21 am on Oct 2, 2007 (gmt 0)


Hi,

I have an ip address trying to hack my sendmail. I have blocked him with host.deny but now in my secure log I'm getting :-
Oct 2 12:03:09 ns in.qpopper[7798]: refused connect from 111.111.111.111
every second which is screwing up other peoples access to the smtp server.

Is there anything else I can do to remove this "person"

Cheers

Andy
