Re: How do I secure ssh to only allow 3login attem

ok, then it sounds like that option does what the pam login limits does as well. Which isn't what you want, of course.

What you really want it some sort of hook to use iptables (or whatever your firewall solutions is if this isn't Linux) to block connections from that IP after X number of failed attempts. I don't know of a generic solution for this, though. Hopefully someone can chime in with something.
