sshd_config is the ssh server config file - modify it and your server'll listen to the port you specify in the file. ssh_config is the ssh client config file - modify it and your client'll try to connect to the ssh server using the port you specify in the file. If you're using the standard ssh port - 22 - there is no need to specify it in either configuration file as both the server and client use this port by default unless otherwise specified. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFBHdSMfQe5A1YbfuURAij+AKDn/ysbqgMbaI8C8b5avlvmBJ6RowCePK6c T2YxulcjkE7n1lIA5OVNdpI= =w43n -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by Shop4tech.com-Lowest price on Blank Media 100pk Sonic DVD-R 4x for only $29 -100pk Sonic DVD+R for only $33 Save 50% off Retail on Ink & Toner - Free Shipping and Free Gift. http://www.shop4tech.com/z/Inkjet_Cartridges/9_108_r285 _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
