Anyone else seeing SSH scans?

[Matthew Dharm <mdharm () one-eyed-alien net>]

I've noticed that several *NIX machines I have running (all of which are
located in the same IP block) are periodically getting scanned via ssh for
the accounts 'test' and 'guest'.

The source IP varies with each scan.  But I'm getting about one of these a
day now.  Obviously, I don't have accounts with that name on my systems,
but still....

Is this something new, or just people looking for badly configured
machines?
