Warning
- If you use a SSH server over internet, or any other unsecured network, you have to use STRONG passwords.
- Just to be in peace with myself: If you use a SSH server over internet, or any other unsecured network, you have to use STRONG passwords.
- For your password, be careful of symbols, because if you plan to connect from another country, you may not have them on the keyboard.
- Also take a look at /etc/ssh/sshd_config , and be sure that the newer protocol is used, and also straight root login is disabled.
Activate the SSH server
chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.sshd /etc/rc.d/rc.sshd start
Keys will be generated. SSH server is now activated at each boot.
SCP
- You can easily copy files in a very secure way, but i won't cover it here (for now).
SSHFS
- You can easily mount remote folders in a very secure way, but i won't cover it here (for now).
SSH tunnel
- You can easily forward remote applications (like VNC) in a very secure way, but i won't cover it here (for now).
