It's not people, though. It's bots! While changing the ssh port adds a comically small amount of security (if any), it isolates you from 99.99% of automated attacks and keeps those logs clean, so I'd recommend it for everyone.
Just remember that the port argument to `scp` is -P and not -p like it is for `ssh`. :p
- rnovak 11y agoYeah, I whitelist IPs, and just drop all other packets, so I'm not really worried, but thanks for the advice, it's always good to get other peoples opinions on best practices.
- x0x0 11y agoI think you can just use ssh/config to store ports even for scp; it's much nicer than remembering that stuff.
