I've read the previous posts about this topic, and with the firewall disabled thru the FC-11 Firewall Configuration Tool, I was able to "ssh u...@localuser -p 8888".
Previously I changed the port in the sshd_config file and restarted sshd.

These are my questions:
1. Does the Firewall Configuration Tool modify a file? Which one?
2. Can I change the sshd port number via the Firewall Configuration Tool? NB, can someone specify all the instructions for this, when I tried it I was unable to select a
service.

Not sure if you are asking about the firewall change or the ssh port change. The sshd port is set either from the command line or in /etc/ssh/sshd.conf. The firewall tool can be used to just add a trusted port for the new port selected.
