theYinYeti Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Side-note: In case you eventually decide to open SSH access from Internet, you _do need_ to protect it, because it is attacked a lot! But don’t use DenyHosts; see here for details: Migrate from DenyHosts to Fail2ban (there is another article, about securing the web server with the help of StartSSL, by the way) Also, only allow login to SSH to an explicit list of allowed users (but not root).
