   I use fail2ban to achieve this.  Follow here: https://wiki.synch   
   o.net/howto:fail2ban   
      
   I then added these lines to my /etc/fail2ban/jail.d/sbbs.conf jail config.   
      
   [sbbs-web]   
   enabled  = true   
   filter   = sbbs-web   
   action   = iptables-allports[name=SBBS-web, protocol=all]   
   logpath  = /var/log/sbbs.log   
   maxretry = 3   
   findtime = 21600   
   bantime = 21600   
      
   and then my /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/sbbs-web.conf:   
      
   [INCLUDES]   
   before = common.conf   
      
   [Definition]   
   failregex = : web.*HTTP.*\[\].*!ERROR:   
   ignoreregex =   
      
   Remember to do a:    
      
   fail2ban-client reload   
      
   to reload your new configs.
