No host sits on a special port. Hosts have IP addresses, whereas ports address a program (service) on a host (ports are the address information for the application layer). What you probably mean is: On one of your hosts, sshd is running on port 80 instead of 22. You can simply solve this problem by placing the appropriate port configuration in your .ssh/config file on the connecting host: Host = some.host.name Port = 80 This allows you to say "ssh some.host.name" instead of "ssh -p 80 some.host.name" So there's no need to specify the remote ssh port in the hostfile. -- Cluster and Metacomputing Working Group Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena, Germany private: http://adi.thur.de
