So I'm hearing that bruteforce mitigation via denyhosts won't add any
additional security, and I agree (after understanding better how
accounts are managed). Does this mean let's just not bother? I don't
think it'll hurt, and if anything it'll simply clean up the logs and
cut down on the noise a bit.
