I said sounds like, not is. I provided information about why
auto-shunning in general can be a bad idea. After a little more
research(though not intensive) it sounds like denyhosts isn't the best
way, but most likely good enough. pam_abl's default behavior of not
blocking the ability to make a connection, but instead just causing the
authentication to fail for that ip address makes more sense.
