[Asterisk-Users] asterisk@home scary log

Please all keep in mind that there are plenty of additional configs possible
to Iptables.

I should have restricted the originating IP address for TCP port 22 to come
from at least my dhcp served address range.  That would have blocked all
hackers except those originating from within my specific ISP's dhcp served
range.  Not perfect but a good sight better that wide open!
