I've been runnin SSH on several Internet-facing servers, and
used to get hundreds, if not thousands, of these messages in
the logs.  I finally got tired of this and moved my SSH server
to a different port (such as 12345 -- not what I use :-), and
now NEVER get these.

For added security, I long ago disabled password-based logins
and accept only public-key authentication.
