This tutorial is for beginer linux users. What is ssh? SSH is a set of standards and an associated network protocol that allows establishing a secure channel between a local and a remote computer. It uses public-key cryptography to authenticate the remote computer and (optionally) to allow the remote computer to authenticate the user. SSH provides confidentiality and integrity of data exchanged between the two computers using encryption and message authentication codes (MACs). SSH is typically used to log into a remote machine and execute commands, but it also supports tunneling, forwarding arbitrary TCP ports and X11 connections; it can transfer files using the associated SFTP or SCP protocols. An SSH server, by default, listens on the standard TCP port 22. When you have installed your Linux distribution and ssh, you must assign pubilc ipaddress to your device. For example if you are connected to internet over ethernet cable and your public ip address is xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, you can use this command: "ifconfig eth0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" and then you must start ssh, in many distributions is it command "/etc/init.d/sshd start" That's all. Now we will be able to access your Linux pc/server and help you with your problems Add as favourites (56) | Quote this article on your site | Views: 524
