The iptables firewall has several useful extension modules which can be used to in addition to the basic firewall functionality. One of the more interesting of these extensions is the "recent" module which allows you to match recent connections, and perform simple throttling on incoming connections.
iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -i eth0 -m state --state NEW -m recent \
--set
iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -i eth0 -m state --state NEW -m recent \
--update --seconds 60 --hitcount 4 -j DROP
--
map{ map{tr|10|# |;print} split//,sprintf"%.8b\n",$_}
unpack'C*',unpack'u*',"5`#8<3'X`'#8^-@`<-CPP`#8V/C8`"
