My Objective : to change the default port ssh form 22 to 7777

Task ( below is what i have done )

#–1 ADD and CONFIGURE USER useradd iloveyou groupadd weloveyou …

vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config #–2 Modification part Port 7777 ClientAliveInterval 900 ClientAliveCountMax 0 ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes GSSAPIAuthentication no PermitRootLogin no AllowUsers iloveyou PermitEmptyPasswords no

–FINISH

/etc/init.d/sshd restart exit

connect : ssh iloveyou@10.129.xxx.xx -p7777

The Result / Impact : i cant connect to my server in the DO cloud :(. Below the log:

2.Connect mac console my_mac>$ ssh webmaster@10.129.xxx.xx -p7777 ssh: connect to host 10.129.xxx.xx port 7777: Operation timed out
