Hi,
Can you just change the port number in /etc/ssh/sshd_config, or do you also
have to modify the lines
ssh 22/tcp # SSH Remote Login Protocol
ssh 22/udp # SSH Remote Login Protocol
in /etc/services?
Also, if you do need to do that, how do you get the machine to notice the
changes... Is there a script in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ to do a restart with?
I'd be really embarrassed if I locked myself out of my server!

Changing the port could fool some port scanners, not all. But its still a
good addition to your security measures.
