Thank you, got it.
In the meantime I revised my existing iptables rules to throttle connections to ssh, pop3, imap and ftp (which service is not running in any case).
Thanks for all the help from everybody.
What you can try doing is putting some services on a non standered port (like SSH on port 4583) This will stop most (not all) attacks coming in at port 22.
