Joe, Is there any reason to have a root-enabled (or any) ssh server exposed to the bare Internet? Any at all? Can you name one? I can’t. That’s basically pilot error.
The last time (a couple of weeks ago) when I installed a Linux on a machine hosted at hetzner.com over the internet, when I logged in for the first time over SSH, it reported about 60 login failures by then. This is time between install and first login over SSH within a matter of minutes. If there's a lock on my door, and someone tries to pick it, you can call me at fault for having a lock on my door facing outside all you want. But the thief picking it has no business doing so, and will be guilty of a crime if caught. Mukund
