Should be titled, "Why Putting SSH on a Non-Privileged Port is a Bad Idea." Nothing there is relevant to SSH on port 234 (just picking something easy to remember and not in /etc/services) or similar. [NB: The poor corporate sysadmin who does not want to deal with every machine running SSH on a different port - another problem mentioned there - is a non-issue. In a corporate setting, if a non-standard port is chosen for anything at all, it will be uniform and documented. And not every Tom, Dick, and Harry will have root access to modify sshd_config without adult supervision.] I am not arguing for or against using a non-standard port. Just pointing out that "non-standard" and "non-privileged" are two different things. -- Oleg Goldshmidt | p...@goldshmidt.org _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
