Hello everyone, Now after the recent discussion on running SSH on a different port, I decided to start a new thread but with SELinux involved. Assuming that you have SELinux enabled, and that you changed the default port for SSHD, let say for 1234, when I restart SSHD I don't get any AVC denials. This is the output of: semanage -l port | grep ssh ssh_port_t tcp 22 I thought (based on previous SELinux readings) that in order to allow SSHD on a non-default port you needed to: semanage port -a -t ssh_port_t -p tcp 1234 That was the theory I read :) Now in practice it seems it is not implemented yet, or at least by the time RHEL5 came out. Does anyone knows? All the best, Jorge
