Hello everybody.
I keep receiving e-mail about block IP like this:
lfd: (sshd) Failed SSH login from 221.181.185.141 (CN/China/-): 5 in the last 3600 secs - Fri Mar 5 15:09:57 2021

lfd: (sshd) Failed SSH login from 12.221.85.22 (US/United States/-): 5 in the last 3600 secs - Fri Mar 5 18:03:49 2021
Is this normal ? Can I stop this ? Or can I change port ???
thanks
its bruteforce attack by the kid hackers but beware they can be successful if your password is small and dictionary based
Is it possible to stop this by disabling ssh log in shell or changing a port ???
yes we recommend always to change ssh port
ok thanks I will do that....
