For all those of you worried about those...
Bruteforce SSH2 attempts that are taking up bandwidth.
Here is what I have come up with:
- Starting July 26th, 2004 totals for recent Bruteforce attempts on knight.gregfolkert.net
- Total of 8,988 events seperated by minutes sometimes, hours, days, never weeks, months or years
- 158,913 bruteforce total attempts to password guess or stumble onto a no password user
- 3727 unique combinations of username-IP Address
- 663 unique names used
- 210 unique IP Addresses have been identified as sources of the attempts
Amazing ain't it?
I thunk so too.

No matter how much Microsoft supporters whine about how Linux and other operating systems have just as many bugs as their operating systems do, the bottom line is that the serious, gut-wrenching problems happen on Windows, not on Linux, not on Mac OS. -- [link|http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1622086,00.asp|source]
