As long as you have passwords disabled then there is nothing to worry about. You could disable password attempts as c3po discussed below but as long as you have the bandwidth/processing power to spare, why not just waste the script kiddies processing power and time. Personally, I find it amusing to check to the logs and see what usernames they have tried. Who really logs in as "fluffy"?
