Title: SSH port
Post by: Bobby on November 17, 2001, 02:53:19 AM

G'day.

I will shortly be running two e-Smith server behind one dial-up connection to the Internet.

I can control the Internet connected machine remotely by SSH.  I need to control the other machine also, the same way.

What do I modify on the "internal" server to have it listen for SSH connections on an alternate port?

With IP forwarding I can get to the "internal" machine.  I figure that if I just forward a non-standard port from the Internet connection of the "public" machine to the "internal" machine I can control both rather easily.

Thanks.

You could simply run "ssh other-server-IP" from your gateway's command line. Works well.

Des,

Thank you!

Had not thought of that.  Works great.
