Well, I don't use PAM, just key-based authentication only, so I always see only the IP getting rejected since it doesn't even give them a place to try a user/password :) It's just weird that it is refusing a connection from u...@domain rather than simply the IP. I guess they could be trying to ssh u...@myhost.net or something. The one with [U2FsdGVkX19g32YZVKMsQkl+mouWITILOicY4Iq9OQo=] as the username is interesting. I wonder what that's all about.
