Hate to break it to you,
Yes, I've had a person that I had a judgement against change jobs once the
papers were in to start taking money from his paycheck. The only thing is
that I know until he pays up what the court says, he has to change jobs
every 6 months.

You do have another option, sue them in Civil court. Just because someone
tries to break into your computer does not mean that you have to go to the
Feds in order to get anything done, you can take them to civil court and
sue them.

Hi,
To find out who owns the IP block you can do 'whois -h whois.arin.net '.
I don't think reporting it would achieve anything, just a friendly
warning from the ISP to the user in question.

It just looks like someone is trying to brute-force an account, I'm
sure there are plenty of places that provide tools for this.
Just make sure you enforce secure passwords, and keep an eye on your
syslog.
