You probably don't want to advertise the port you chose either as per your mail.
You may also wish to set:
PermitRootLogin no AllowUsers gerald other1 other2 etc(i.e. limit to users you care about with known strong passwords or keys only as someone else suggested).
DUmb question - did you service sshd restart to make sure your changes were picked up?
