Hello,
The same thing happened to our server earlier this month (exact same
IP address).
I took the brute force approach and removed the machine from internet

The probing stopped and did not resume.

I'm back as I have a problem with a "client" at 71.140.125.37 who has
since last night, been trying to get into the accounts by going through
hundreds of username/password combinations. Here's a log extract:
11:14:21 0 SYSTEM Account {consult} Resources open failed. Error Code=-43
11:14:21 1 POP {consult} is not open: password(eagle) is wrong.
Connection from [71.140.125.37:14341]
