OOOps, there is a tiny mistake there, instead of parameter "IP_of_your_SSH
_server" you shold put there IP range of IP's that you DO want to have access to
your SSH server box.

First of all change the port of your SSH server, perhaps give it a large number
such as 37854 (juas an example). Just doing this, will reduce your ssh attacks
for 99% ;-)

Next, you want to do change following files, to match:

/etc/hosts.deny
ALL:ALL


...and:

/etc/hosts.allow
sshd: IP_of_your_SSH_server


Next, for IP tables do:

iptables -P INPUT DROP
iptables -A INPUT -s IP_of_your_SSH_server --dport your_new_ssh_port -j ACCEPT

This should be bulletproof (in theory), but only changing the ssh port, will
reduce your ssh attacks for 99%, you'll see :)
