I found a cool project called DenyHosts that I just setup last evening
for this purpose. I haven't used it very long, but it was very easy to
setup, and seems to be working for me. I know it's cut down on the
invalid user logging in /var/log/secure in a matter of a day already,
and I've even left SSH traffic on port 22, just to make sure that it's
being hammered on.
Check it out.
