Hello,
I have several users on the system, but I want each of them to have different SSH settings. Is this possible?

Thank you.

sshd_config and ssh_config support conditional match blocks, condition can include usernames e.g. 'match user jason'.

Without knowing what you mean by different settings it is not possible to say what you want to do is possible.

Usually, "ssh" stores per-user settings in a per-user directory ... within that user's "/home."

So, what exactly is your situation, and thus your question?

Hello,
Thank you so much for your reply.
I have two users on the system. Jason and James. I want Jason to use port 22 and James to use port 23 to use SSH and settings such as ListenAddress, MaxAuthTries, MaxSessions, etc. are different for each user.

that means you need to have two sshd processes, one of them is listening on port 22, with its own setup and another one on port 23.

But anyway you can find a lot of info about it on the net, we can only repeat those information.

Hello,
Thank you so much for your reply.
Looks like Match has a lot of options.
Is the following configuration correct?

No. You'll need to re-read the manual page for sshd_config about how Match works.

Then you might be able to work out some pattern with users and ports in the Match clause followed by AllowGroup or DenyGroup.

It's still not clear what problem you are trying to solve.

I suspect that you don't actually need to use "different, and non-standard, ports."

This smells like an "XY Problem." Why don't you give us more information about your scenario and use-case?

Hello,
Thank you so much for your reply.
I have already explained it. Please see #5.

Hello,
Thank you so much for your reply.
Should I have two SSH daemons?

No that is not the explanation. The question was why do you want it? What problem do you want to solve by using two ports?

Hello,
Thanks again.
I want to do this for two reasons:
1- I want to have Fail2Ban service for one port, but not for another.

2- When you install a program like GitLab, this program uses port 22 by default to clone through SSH. If you change the SSH port to another port, then you must define this new port through the gitlab_shell_ssh_port option in the GitLab settings. This causes problems for some users because they use port 22 by default to clone repositories. If having different ports, then one port can be used for system management and another port can be used for all users in the GitLab group.
