Hi, > Running sshd without port 22 open doesn't make much sense.
well, I know at least one person who has a locally running SSH daemon for no reason other than being able to use "ssh root@localhost" as a fancy replacement for sudo. For that use case, it's not necessary (nor desirable) to have the firewall enable access from the outside world. Personally, I would argue that no service should open up ports in the firewall, ever. Only the administrator should do that. Just my 2 cents, Peter _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
