IPShutter

PShutter lets you firewall off ports such as ssh, and selectively enable access with a one-time password.

For example, if you want to log into the server from a friend's house, you pull out a list of one-time passwords and point the web browser at a URL that contains one password. That tells the server to allow ssh connections from your friend's IP address for five minutes. Connections made in that period will stay up indefinitely.

IPShutter is written in Perl language. It requires ipchains - on 2.4 kernels, ipchains can be loaded as module. IPShutter must run as root.

You may need to modify the first line of IPShutter to point to where Perl5 is located on your system.
