If you refer to the thread "[SLE] stopping dictionary attacks on sshd" look at the post from Kevin 15:19 today. There is not more to add. This "coolsolution" or changing the portnumber sshd will listen on only help you that these attacks don't fill you logs.

Adding a host to the /etc/hosts.deny file does much more than prevent my logs from filling up. It's not filling my logs because the offending host is no longer accessing my server. -- Louis Richards
