   Is it normal for a very private vps to receive thousands of ssh attempts per hour?
Well, I haven't bothered looking in a long time. But, back when I first got a cable modem back in the late 90's the malicious access attempts filled up my hard drive in just a couple of weeks. I don't remember the size of the HD, but I can only imagine the situation has gotten much, much worse since then.
