At one of my customers sites I have iptables configured to drop all ssh

Illegal users from:

Now the address above is not one on the allowed list. Is it possible
that they were able to get past iptables to attempt the login?
It's more likely that the rules aren't loaded, or that there's another
rule that allows access in general. What's "iptables -L -n" look like?
I'll assume that you're not specifying interface names in your rule
sets, so adding "-v" probably won't reveal anything useful.
