RE: Some new SSH exploit script?

["Sekurity Wizard" <s.wizard () boundariez com>]

It's different this time, but more of the same.  My server was quiet for
months and months, and as of yesterday, the same 'script' has been run
against my SSHd box for hours at a time, by dozens upon dozens of
users...  I was curious if there was some new exploit I hadn't read
about yet or something.

Thanks.

Are you seeing something other than the same old brute force trash?
