Tobias,
Thanks for that.  In fact I've picked up a few of those issues recently
and extended my patch to include them.  The only item I have to query
is if lines of the form:
error: maximum authentication attempts exceeded for invalid user admin
from 31.162.41.222 port 43423 ssh2 [preauth]
i.e. invalid users, should be added to $TooManyFailures{$User} (as you
do) or $IllegalUsers{$Host}{$User} (as I've recently added)?
In fact, it may be just as easy to ignore that message, as it also
appears as normal failures messages for the previous attempts, and so
has already been logged earlier.
Anyway, that is just a little nit, not a big issue.
RegardsFrank
