I have a Solaris server at work running SSH-2.0-2.0.13 and lately I've 
noticed weird addresses in the logs attempting to connect to the sshd 
server.  It seems that we have similar problems.  Here are  a few 
examples of the log entries:

Dec 27 18:55:10  sshd2: refused connect from webcoenvironmental.com
Dec 28 07:48:32  sshd2: refused connect from tripleimage.nobleimage.com
Dec 29 16:00:02  sshd2: refused connect from nikita.csun.edu

I'm running tcp wrappers to only allow certian ip addresses to access 
the ssh server, so I'm probably okay but does anyone know if there are 
any security holes in the version of ssh that I am running?
