similar to: Running SSH on a different port

In there you are almost telling people that security through obscurity is a good way. That might sometimes be true but in this case it could mean that you would be handing passwords and other data out. When you start SSH on port 22 it is done with root privileges because the root user is the only one that can use ports below 1024. Root is the only user that can listen to that port or do

Hi, QUESTION: what implications are there when using the "root" or a root type of account via a port-forwarding ssh-tunnel inside (or on top of) another non-root type of user's ssh-tunnel ? Is such double layer of encryption brings more security or system still vulnerable same as single layer of SSH encryption ? DETAILS: In CentOS (6.3 & 6.4) server side i have done these: (1)

HI all, 1st time contributor here. I was using the guide on securing SSH, and noticed that the firewall-cmd snippets for filtering by requests per time seem somewhat outdated. From what I can tell the given snippets, relay arguments directly down to iptables, and do not cover both IPv4 and v6. (and in fact when attempting to extend to v6 the firewall would fail to reload). I came up with an

here: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Network/SecuringSSH the recipe for how to copy your id_rsa.pub file to a remote system is given as: "Copy the public key (id_rsa.pub) to the server and install it to the authorized_keys list: $ cat id_rsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys" i suspect it would be better if that were rewritten in terms of using ssh-copy-id, just to be simpler and

Hi, just a quick note to whoever is maintaining this page: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Network/SecuringSSH The procedure is missing the firewall-cmd calls necessary in EL7: firewall-cmd --add-port 2345/tcp firewall-cmd --add-port 2345/tcp --permanent Also, it may be worth mentioning that semanage is in the policycoreutils-python package, which isn?t installed by default in all stock

subject: ssh non-intuitive logging setting (priority names). I installed openssh 2.3.0p1 on Solaris 7 for x86 box and sshd worked fine. However, somehow the logging of connection and disconnection to sshd was not recorded as I wished. Time to investigate. On a host where sshd from data-fellows once ran, the log was recorded with auth.info level. After trying to modify sshd_config, I found that

Hi, I'd like to use SSH without password so I can use it in scripts (for example in combination with rsync to do backups). I have Carla Schroder's "Linux Cookbook" and I'm trying out the various receipts, but the one for SSH without a password doesn't work. The book is slightly dated, and I wonder if SSH included in CentOS works differently. Any suggestions? Niki

Hi, I have the following problem with ssh, hope someone can help me with it: I have 2 processes of ssh server on same Linux machine. One of them is the normal ssh configuration for Linux, the other one starts with a custom configuration on another port. >From the client i do a remote port forwarding to the custom ssh server: ssh -R 1037:localhost:55555. After this command on ssh server

I'm not sure I follow, you just think the modified one should be called "ssh-custom", or you think there shouldn't be a modified service file at all? -- Kimee On Fri, 2019-04-26 at 19:46 +0200, Thibaut Perrin wrote: > Hi there, > > Wouldn't that be a better solution to create a custom xml file to put > in /etc/firewalld and load that "ssh-custom"

Hi, sorry if it is the wrong approuch to suggest improvments to OpenSSH, but here comes my suggestion: I recently stumbled upon the scponly shell which in it's chroot:ed form is an ideal solution when you want to share some files with people you trust more or less. The problem is, if you use the scponlyc as shell, port forwarding is still allowed. This can of course be dissallowed in
