[Cialug] ssh

[Chris K.]

Tony,

I've done this a couple ways.

1.) I have my firewall listen on a chosen port and forward that to port 22
on my shell server.

2.) Changed the port that sshd listens on in /etc/ssh/sshd_config


Both seem to work well and I don't get all those scripted attempts on port
22 on my firewall.

HTH

How many of you have moved ssh of the standard port of 22?  I'm asking 
because recently I'm seeing hosts from a 210.x.x.x network trying like 
hell to get in via ssh on that port.  Since it seems scripted I'm 
thinking of changing ports to something more obscure but I figured I'd 
check to see what some of you have done for this sort of stuff.
