'''Lilo''' linux loader is a boot loader to load linux, and other operating systems.  Lilo is called by default when running make install in kernel source directories.
'''sshguard''' is an intrusion prevention system.  sshguard parses server logs, determines malicious activity, and then bans malicious users via firewall rules.  sshguard is written in C so it does not tax an interprator.
=Installation=
==Emerge==
<console>##i### emerge lilo</console>


=Configure=
== Installation ==
=== Emerge ===
To install sshguard:


Lilo's default configuration example has hda references, lets change those to sda recursively using sed.<console>##i### sed -i -e 's/hda/sda/' /etc/lilo.conf.example</console>Now we copy the example configuration to the running configuration.<console>##i### cp /etc/lilo.conf.example /etc/lilo.conf</console>
<console>
###i## emerge app-admin/sshguard
</console>


==Default OS==
=== Configuration ===
sshguard does not have a configuration file.  sshguard is controlled by flags passed to it upon execution.


To change default booting os.
/etc/conf.d/sshguard is where flags & log path can be passed to the sshguard service.

==== Rules ====
# MBR to install LILO to:
{{file|name=/etc/conf.d/sshguard|desc=overly strict rules|body=
boot = /dev/sda
SSHGUARD_OPTS="-p 3600 -s 3600 -a 20"}}

}}
 
==Timeout==
 
To have lilo auto start after a set time.
 
{{file|name=/etc/lilo.conf|desc=|body=
# If you always want to see the prompt with a 15 second timeout:
timeout=150}}
 
==Silence==
 
For silent kernel decompression at boot:
 
{{file|name=/etc/lilo.conf|desc=|body=
label = Funtoo
read-only # read-only for checking
append = "quiet"}}


==alternate init systems==
==== Logs ====
sshguard will fail to start unless it has proper authorization logs to monitor.


to load an alternate init system, example systemd instead of openrc:
{{file|name=/etc/conf.d/sshguard|desc=syslog-ng log location|body=
SSHGUARD_OPTS="${SSHGUARD_OPTS} -l /var/log/messages"}}


{{file|name=/etc/lilo.conf|desc=|body=
== Iptables ==
label = Funtoo-systemd
=== IP v4 ===
read-only # read-only for checking
Generate blank iptables rules, and start iptables as outlined [[Iptables#First_Run|here]].
append = "quiet init=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd"}}


==Old Configs==
Insert these rules to allow sshguard to ban malicious users.


It is a good idea to keep an old image around in case problems crop up in new kernel builds.
<console>
###i## iptables -N sshguard
</console>


{{file|name=/etc/lilo.conf|desc=|body=
&& to block all trafic from offenders
#image = /boot/bzImage.old
        root = /dev/sda3
        #root = /devices/discs/disc0/part3
        label = funtoo.old
        read-only # read-only for checking#}}


=Kernel Linking=
<console>
###i## iptables -A INPUT -j sshguard
</console>


Using symlinks is a good idea to be able to determine if the loader is loading the correct image, and enable tab auto completion to ensure we are loading what we intend to.  symlinks remove an easy area to fumble when adjusting configurations.
== Boot Service ==
=== OpenRC ===
To start sshguard immediately:
<console>
###i## rc-service sshguard start
</console>


<console>##i### ln -s /boot/vmlinuz-version /boot/bzImage</console>
To start sshguard upon reboot:
<console>##i### ln -s /boot/vmlinuz-version.old /boot/bzImage.old</console>
<console>
###i## rc-update add sshguard default
</console>

   Tip

sshguard is an intrusion prevention system. sshguard parses server logs, determines malicious activity, and then bans malicious users via firewall rules. sshguard is written in C so it does not tax an interprator.

Installation

Emerge

To install sshguard: 

root # emerge app-admin/sshguard

Configuration

sshguard does not have a configuration file. sshguard is controlled by flags passed to it upon execution.

/etc/conf.d/sshguard is where flags & log path can be passed to the sshguard service.

Rules

   /etc/conf.d/sshguard - overly strict rules
SSHGUARD_OPTS="-p 3600 -s 3600 -a 20"

Logs

sshguard will fail to start unless it has proper authorization logs to monitor.

   /etc/conf.d/sshguard - syslog-ng log location
SSHGUARD_OPTS="${SSHGUARD_OPTS} -l /var/log/messages"

Iptables

IP v4

Generate blank iptables rules, and start iptables as outlined here.

Insert these rules to allow sshguard to ban malicious users. 

root # iptables -N sshguard

&& to block all trafic from offenders 

root # iptables -A INPUT -j sshguard

Boot Service

OpenRC

To start sshguard immediately: 

root # rc-service sshguard start

To start sshguard upon reboot: 

root # rc-update add sshguard default
