I restarted it without -f, and sshd stayed up for about 6 days. Unfortunately when I look at the log file its mtime is about 6 days ago.. so I doubt very much it has anything useful in it. I'll look into running another sshd on a higher port for my own needs and strace one on port 22. The dictionary attacks should still trigger this eventually.
