ssh change port
hello
how do i change the port that ssh uses? i have changed the port number in the ssh_config and sshd_config but i still does not work. |
I am not sure, but did you restart the ssh, usually changes do not take place, until you send the HUP signal to the proccess and make it reread its config files, or until you stop it and restart it again.
|
hrmm
how would i restart it? i typed in: sshd restart and it gives me: Extra argument restart. |
Try:
service sshd restart |
when i do service sshd restart it says:
-bash: service: command not found |
redhat:
Code:
/sbin/service sshd restart Code:
/etc/rc.d/rc.sshd stop && /etc/rc.d/rc.sshd start |
oh it worked
but now i get some kind of an error: cipher_encrypt: bad plaintext length 337 is that something i should worry about? |
hrmmm i still cant get ssh working
any ideas on what cipher_encrypt: bad plaintext length 337 means? |
anyone? anyone? anyone?
(echos) lol |
At the console type "cat -A /etc/ssh/sshd_config". If you see ^M (aka Control M) or a lot of space then it has $. I could be that the ssh does not like like lines. You have to edit it. I suggest using vi but you can use any text editor. vi is the standard text editor for LINUX because it does not take up much room and it consumes less memory.

i couldnt find a ^M or alot of spaces before a $
but here is what cat says: #^I$OpenBSD: sshd_config,v 1.65 2003/08/28 12:54:34 markus Exp $$ $ # This is the sshd server system-wide configuration file.

Check if your server's keys are OK. If not, re-create them.
