ssh

In the SSH Password Auth Tweak when I disable password authentication, it is disabled for all SSH accounts. Is there a way to disable it for the root account only? In other words, I'd like to allow a specified SSH account to be able to authenticate with the standard password method. Tomas

Hello, we are in the process of changing the ssh port from the default 22 to a different one. Is there a desired or recommend port range to use for ssh ?? TIA, Mickalo

Hello, please can any one tell me how i can open file.txt in SSH in home direcet :mad:

Hi All: I have been reading and utilizing 000000000's exceptional "A Beginners Guide to Securing Your Server", but have hit a bit of a snag. Every time I attempt to change the port to a number other than 22 per the instructions, I can't SSH in any longer. Not as root (which is disabled...

Hi there, sorry, noticed some people mentioning use of Putty. When I try to use putty to my IP address it did not work, as in it cannot connect. Are there any settings I need to update to allow access?? Your help much appreciated Fred

I've been using Putty, but it leaves a lot to be desired. I'd like to find a ssh client that had more features such as the ability to cut and paste, remember account passwords, etc... Any suggestions?

a while back just after we got the server I tried setting up a user to login to shell with. Then I could just su to root. like your suppose to well I was unable to get su to work. so I abandoned it until a later date.. I could login no problem. I had so many pressing things to setup and do...

In the SSH keys manager I am given the option to create either a DSA or RSA key but the RSA key creation never goes through. I mean, nothing happens and there is no key added to the SSH key manager. No error message either. Any ideas what could be the reason? I'd really prefer RSA... Tomas

I would like to enable SSH for customers only on a limited time basis. Is this possible? So basically, we turn on SSH, and specify a time when it should be automatically disabled. (ie: a month, a week, a day, etc...) Any ideas?

Probably obvious, but being old it took me a while to figure this out :) I tried to transfer an account from one server to another but the connectioned timed out, this is because although CSF configures your SSH port when installed, it only puts the SSH port in allowed TCP_IN So i had to add...

I'm considering requiring users on my system to use keyed SSH to connect. We're already taking steps for SSH security by binding it to an off IP and port, but my paranoid mind says that's not enough. Is it really all that much added security to require users who wish to use SSH to generate...

How do I set my outgoing SSH port, I would have thought it would been port 22, just as it is by default incoming, but looking at my firewall logs, its blocking my outgoing SSH connections, which always have a source port of a random high range number. Google seems to be a pain in the butt...

I have made ssh more and more restrictive, different port, only one user can log in (then su to root). But I would like to have my users be able to use sftp. I've been testing with giving users jailshell but of course they are not in the "allow" list for sshd. Anyone have an idea how to...

Hy guys, it's possible open a reseller just with root access by ssh?

Hi Does anyone know a quick way to change your SSH port through WHM? Cheers

Hello, I've been trying to find a setting in the sshd_config that will allow me to increase the idle time while logged in via SSH, similar to FTP, but not having much luck. Is there a default setting somewhere else or can this be set in the sshd_config file ?? TIA, Mickalo

When I try to run SSH on any other port than 22 (for security reasons), I can connect and everything works fine for a little while, but then after a couple of minutes the connection drops. I've tried various different random port numbers but it's always the same, I can't stay connected. On port...
