Back In the past week, I've seen log entries like this pretty much every day. This is on a Fedora 4 system. I'm running sshblack to get rid of the thousands of ssh breaking attempts and have been using the included bl command to add these ip addresses to the block list (which adds them to iptables with instructions to drop the packets). Is that worthwile? Should I do anything else? Again, these have only started showing up this week.
Thanks!
Harold
