+&gt;&gt;<i>

+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> a second line with the second port
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>

+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Port 22 Port 5122
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> and restart sshd
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> with this all access that expects port 22 will continue to work,
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> and you can also access it through the new 5122 port.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Simple and effective, and no portforwarding needed.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>Done
+
+&gt;<i> And add 5122/tcp to the &quot;Advanced&quot; tab in MCC -&gt; Security -&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> Personal Firewall (if you are using a personal firewall).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>Also done
+
+&gt;<i> If the server is accessible from the internet I would recommend
+</I>&gt;<i> some further changes to sshd_conf. This is what I use (assuming
+</I>&gt;<i> this is a server for personal use, not with hundreds of users
+</I>&gt;<i> connecting):-
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> =================================================
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> LoginGraceTime 120
+</I>
+Was 2m - I assume that is minutes and you gave seconds. Changed it anyway
+
+&gt;<i> PermitRootLogin no
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> TCPKeepAlive yes
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>Both already set
+
+&gt;<i> AllowUsers -&gt;your user name here&lt;- MaxStartups 2:90:4
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> ==================================================
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> The &quot;MaxStartups&quot; parameter deters the script kiddies trying to
+</I>&gt;<i> guess the password:-
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> MaxStartups ========
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Specifies the maximum number of concurrent unauthenticated
+</I>&gt;<i> connections to the SSH daemon. Additional connections will be
+</I>&gt;<i> dropped until authentication succeeds or the LoginGraceTime expires
+</I>&gt;<i> for a connection. The default is 10.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Alternatively, random early drop can be enabled by specifying the
+</I>&gt;<i> three colon separated values &#8220;start:rate:full&#8221; (e.g. &quot;10:30:60&quot;).
+</I>&gt;<i> sshd(8) will refuse connection attempts with a probability of
+</I>&gt;<i> &#8220;rate/100&#8221; (30%) if there are currently &#8220;start&#8221; (10)
+</I>&gt;<i> unauthenticated connections. The probability increases linearly and
+</I>&gt;<i> all connection attempts are refused if the number of
+</I>&gt;<i> unauthenticated connections reaches &#8220;full&#8221; (60).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>Done. Also fail2ban is installed, which should give another layer of
+protection. I've used that for ~3 years, and in that time only seen
+3-4 times when it had to work, but work it did :-)
+
+Unfortunately, after adding the IMAP high port to shorewall and
+telling dovecot to listen to that port, I still can't get my Roaming
+mail profile to work. I'll have to explore more later today.
+
+Thanks for the help so far.
