I don't know all the details involving your particular incident, but 
at one time there was a bug in PC-Anywhere that caused it to listen 
on UDP port 22 (they didn't put their port number in network byte 
order as I remember).

I still see scanners looking for UDP port 22 every once in a while 
(script kiddies looking for poorly configured PC-Anywhere instances).

So, this could be unrelated to your incident, and just be some random 
script kiddie.  In general, if you turn on log_in_vain on a box that 
is directly connected to the Internet, you'll see a lot of random 
cruft....
