Figure out whether your connection refused is coming from your machine or someplace before it gets to your machine. This may provide some clues. Also, if using port 22 works, you might consider going back to port 22 and using /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny to limit what IP addresses can get to your machine. There is a plethora of discussions on this list on various ways to accomplish this. Changing the port number reminds me too much of the Micro$oft security by obfuscation technique. Bob Styma
