change your ssh port.

you have to use a custom block script and add ip ranges. you just cant run it
and use it to block attackers.

i put it all on facebook, take a look at it.

nothing is better than a watchful eye.  block the attackers.
block entire ranges in your ip.can if you dont want to use peerblock.
make a honeypot. use spambait.cfg

with synchronet you are running a ton of servers on the internet.  you will
always have a lot of attack attempts.
