				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Preventing brute force login programs from guessing your WordPress installation can be a pain, but I started changing the name of the wp-login.php file long ago when I figured that I couldn&#8217;t easily change the &#8216;admin&#8217; username and didn&#8217;t want to wrap the wp-login.php file in basic auth (not really secure). Remember there is no silver bullet for security. This is just another layer.</p>
<p>Every time you update WordPress, take these extra steps.</p>
<ol>
<li>SSH into your server.</li>
<li> Navigate to your blogs directory ( eg: <code>cd /var/www/blog</code> ) </li>
<li>Backup your wp-login.php file ( eg:<code> mv wp-login.php wp-login.pbackup.452012</code> )<br />
Some web scanners will look for every file accessible and change the extension to .backup or php.old or .php.bak, so I include the date to add another layer.</li>
<li>Think what you want to change your wp-login.php file name to. For this example I&#8217;m going to use wp-banana.php.  I like bananas, there is one on my desk.</li>
<li>Run this sed command: <code>sed 's/wp-login/wp-banana/g' &lt;wp-login.pbackup.452012 &gt;wp-banana.php</code></li>
<li>Open a browser and access your new login page. http://www.yoursite.com/wp-banana.php<br />
         You should see the normal login and it should take you to your Dashboard.</li>
<li>If this didn&#8217;t work, copy the backup back.( eg:<code>cp wp-login.pbackup.452012 wp-login.php</code> )</li>
<li>Make sure wp-login.php doens&#8217;t exist. http://www.yoursite.com/wp-login.php should return a 404 error.</li>
<li>Use your blog, don&#8217;t forget your new filename and now you can keep attackers from brute forcing your WordPress admin password.</li>
</ol>

I went to NameCheap. I didn&#8217;t do it early enough to take advantage of the SOPASUCKS discount, but it doesn&#8217;t matter. It&#8217;s not about that. It is a matter of principle.</p>
