ssh port & iptables
 
Assalam o Alaikum

I have changed port of ssh to 972. Now I can only access when i disable iptbales. I want to make iptables to allow port 972 for ssh it tried following but nothing happens

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 972 -j ACCEPT

your best bet is to open /etc/sysconfig/iptables and change the line for port 22 to 972 and reload the iptables service. Just doing that addition will put it after the default blocking rules.
