Hi Cy,

To me, pam_tally sounds useful, because while some of the functionality can be 
found in the form of blocklistd, which can be used to restrict abuse via a 
firewall, that doesn't really limit local-access attempts.

So it definitely seems like something that could be useful for, for example, 
laptops used by developers and users who're dog-fooding. I know I'll be using 
it, if you do end up making it. :)

Yours,
Daniel Ebdrup Jensen
