Hi Gilles, ssh is part of the base system, not an installed port (by default anyway) so you won't see it with pkg_info which will only list installed packages. The config file is /etc/ssh/sshd_config. To limit connections, you should be using the firewall. I do use hosts.allow too, but the firewall is your primary defence. hth, Gary On Fri, 18 Apr 2008 10:51:45 +0200 Gilles <gilles.ganault@free.fr> wrote: > Hello > > I have a couple of questions about running SSHd: > > 1.
