what to do when attacked
I'm in another state working, away from my home farm. I've got my hardware firewall at home set up to let ssh queries be routed to one machine, from that one I can check on the progress of the whole farm, kill and restart processes, reboot, whatever I need to do to tend the farm.
I browsed the auth.log file on my ssh server machine and found tons of attempts at access, with lists of usernames and root with them having no luck. I don't know much about security, other than don't use telnet and have secure passwords. Other than disable ssh access, is there anything I can do to stop this? I'm not too worried about them guessing my passwords, but isn't it eating up cpu cycles to answer constant access queries?
