fail2ban VS. denyhost

[Stephen M]

I am trying to learn about ssh and remoting into a computer from out of my
house.  I have all the ability to do this but I want to make sure my
desktop is secured.  I will basically be either using resources on my
desktop or backing up files to my laptop.

>From what I have read.  denyhosts and fail2ban are the same, the only
difference is fail2ban requires more maintenance and has more options.  If
I am just trying to turn my desktop into a file server whats the best
option here?
