Ok - I may not be able to lock in the SSH to a particular IP, but can
ofcourse try port-knocker and a non-password-based SSH. I will research a
bit about these as i'm not very familiar with a port-knocker and a
non-password-based SSH yet.

Here's a nice iptables-based port knocker for SSH (or any other service for
