We are using SSHD in an application to create an embedded SFTP server which works fine. Our clients connect on port 22 and we don't have any issue with that.
The problem/question is that our IA folks are complaining that our app also listens on what appear to be random high ports. E.g. I see this in our logs. Session username@/127.0.0.1:58118 authenticated Server session created from /127.0.0.1:58132 Server session created from /127.0.0.1:58139 Server session created from /127.0.0.1:58157 I see these later log statements are coming from IoSession in ServerSessionImpl but I don't call this in my code so must be part of the SSHD/MINA framework. Why are these high ports being used and do we need them? If not needed for SFTP server how can I disable? If they are needed, why and can I control the exact ports that are used? -Dave
