[servconf.c sshd_config sshd_config.5]
     Change default of MaxStartups to 10:30:100 to start doing random early
     drop at 10 connections up to 100 connections.  This will make it harder
     to DoS as CPUs have come a long way since the original value was set
     back in 2000.  Prompted by nion at debian org, ok markus@
