First off, HAPPY FRIDAY TO ALL!
Now for my "problem": I have a ssh server running at my home. And I logged in from my office today and saw this:
I am trying fedora 18 so I am glad that it it not allowing anyone in who shouldn't be but who is this 118.67.250.110 and how can I tell them to kindly F off?
Should I feel safe that they are not getting in or worried that they may keep trying? I am using a password to ssh into my home but I am starting to think I am going to use keys... Would anyone recommend something extra or am I just being paranoid and since I have a very strong password I have nothing to worry about?
I appreciate the input
Thank you! :dance:
Also maybe there is a way that after a certain amount of failed attempts I send you a virus or something haha
