Subject: fail2ban VS. denyhost
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?
