Even better: accept that 1%, store that info, and then wait for IP's
to connect using that username and password combination (and either
reject it or blackhole it, your choice) and use long delays for
systems that connect with that user/pass combo.
The resulting data will tie together methods/sources of password
cracking with the exploited systems that try to abuse it.
