Description

Endlessh is an SSH tarpit that very slowly sends an endless, random SSH banner. It keeps SSH clients locked up for hours or even days at a time. The purpose is to put your real SSH server on another port and then let the script kiddies get stuck in this tarpit instead of bothering a real server.

Message after installing

Configure endlessh either via endlessh.conf or using endlessh_args in rc.conf.
The defaults are commented out in endlessh.conf.

The default configuration only logs starts & stops to /var/log/endlessh.log.
To see the connections set LogLevel 1 in endlessh.conf or add "-v" to
endlessh_args. Sending SIGUSR1 to endlessh (pkill USR1 endlessh) will add
statistics to the /var/log/endlessh.log file

Link (or copy) endlessh.newsyslog.conf to /usr/local/newsyslog.conf.d/
to take care of log rotation.

ln -s /usr/local/etc/endlessh.newsyslog.conf /usr/local}/etc/newsyslog.conf.d/
