I'd stick with ssh. However, if your really worried about having a port open, I recently ran into a very cool program that actually only opens a port when you know the correct sequence. For example, if I wanted to ssh into your box I'd first have to probe port 1009, 5123, 2213 (in that order) at which time that machine would automatically add me to the approved list for ssh in the firewall. It's like a combination lock. =) Anyway, check it out at: http://www.zeroflux.org/knock/ -- Adam Voigt adam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
