I cannot help with the port scanning, but ssh is real easy to use. Just install the ssh-server RPM and the server will start up all by itself. By default it will allow access from anyone who knows a valid username/password To connect to it from another Linux computer install the ssh-client RPM and then enter ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] in a terminal. To connect from a Windows computer try Putty http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ You can configure ssh to become very secure indeed. Instructions are on www.mandrakesecure.net Unfortunately the site is down for maintenance at present. This guide will show you how to restrict access to users who hold a valid encryption key.
