What version of SSH were you running? Were you following all the rules and such? What other daemons are you running? You may wish to see if other daemons are running that you didn't know were running, and some that may have been added later. Let me know what you find. Run nmap on your server from across the lan or whatever (see what holes are there, etc). Regardless, take the box down off the net, and be sure to check all your other boxes. If you have other boxes near it, you might check those, and change all your passwords (of course, make sure therea aren't any trojans on those, etc first). Good luck...
