I had to change the SSHD Port from 22 to 2995 and since the Firewall
is looking at 22 where do I make changes to 2995.
Is it in /etc/sysconfig/iptables
Yes, but if you are running gnome, use the System > Administration >
firewall to get to you what is basically system-config-firewall. The
select to add other and allow whatever port you assign SSHD to.
Of course you change the SSHD port in /etc/ssh/sshd_config. The you can
simply 'service sshd restart' to get it to the new port.
On the client side you either include -p n, or there is some file to
change that makes ssh default to the port in question (don't have my
docs handy).
I ALWAYs change my SSHD port. I think that is the first thing I do with
an new install.
We had a 'discussion' about this on the Shorewall list a while back. The
advantage of changing the port or throttling connect attempts. I think
the result was 'do both'.
