ConfigServer Community Forum

Hello in my server i change the ssh port from 22 to 4176
i also open the tcp_in and tcp_out this port and delete the 22

I can login to the ssh. I also try from another ip to be blocked or alerted.
Nothing happened
In the allow ips this ip it is not stated there
also in deny

so what can i do to be informed or even alerted whenever someone tries to login in this port??

Thanks in adavnce

did you restarted sshd for the changes to take effect?

Yes i restarted but nothing happened

i check this file
/etc/ssh/sshd_config it has the Port 4176
but in the CSF
i saw this
PORTS_sshd = 22 (restricted UI item)
(i can not edit it)

Also my server respond only to the new port

above PORTS_sshd, it reads:
"This list is replaced, if present, by "Port" definitions in /etc/ssh/sshd_config"

So, the number that is in gray doesn't matter if you have defined "PORT" in your sshd_config file.
But if you don't like to see the port "22", you can change it manually modifying csf.conf directly, after you save the change you will see any number that you write there.
