You need to swap rule 2 in your article by rule 1 then it will work. i.e first iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -i eth0 -m state --state NEW -m recent --update --seconds 60 --hitcount 4 -j DROP and then iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -i eth0 -m state --state NEW -m recent --set The above set of rules will not work correctly.
