@hypocrisy: you can dynamicly add (-a) and remove (-d) hosts on the run but not for a limited time AFAIK. But it should be possible to write a plugin that handle that.
@bolstad Yes, I know that... I use BFD together with APF, so that's out of my hair. The time-limit would be what is missing, imho. Otherwise is APF+BFD adequate.

It'd be nice if this would be "per inserted blocked IP-address"-level instead of purging the entire file.

Are you looking for apf -f or something else?

No, the blocklist... and have a function that basically only bans an IP-address for a particular time and then removes it, similar to CSF+LFD.
I heard that 0.96 will have improvements, but I am not sure it'll fix what I'm after (didn't read that well in the speed of things to be honest).

APF came with InterWorx and I don't want to change, as it is bundled with InterWorx / NodeWorx.
