David by coordinated do you mean they shared a common dictionary but
used separate portions of that dictionary?

We had reports of that type of coordination for ssh attacks last year.

> Over the past day, we noticed a coordinated telnet sweep of part of
our address space (149.163.0.0).  It seems like each source IP would
scan a section, then an hour or so later, a different IP would pick up
where the last left off.  Below is the list of sources with a UTC
timestamp.

Thanks,
