I have seen this too alot. Im suprised to see so many with the problem. Im still somewhat a linux noob, anyone have any sites or links to info to eliminate passwords and use keys??? Or other suggestions? I have to use ssh, its how I run server. But id like to read up on some security fixes.
Links, off the top of my head no...
But if you dissable root logins, and use iptables to allow only your IP/range to connect to ssh, youre pretty much as safe as you can be.
make sure you use decent passwords also...
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is gonna be a pretty hard password to brute force.
