hello,

I have set up SSH on my computer and I can ssh in just fine.  I would now
like to change from the default port 22 to port XXXXX  I have changed that
in the routers virtual ports easy enough.

1) Where do I make the changes on my ssh host computer?

2) In the /etc/ssh_config file there is a line "#port 22" (commented out) Is
this where I make the change?

3) Do I have have to change anything else?

4) Next question:  When ssy'ing or scp'ing in from an other computer is it
necessary to specifically call out the new port such as:

"ssh -p XXXXX myuser at mydyndns.address"

5) Does the other comp have to have the same port set up or is the default
port 22 ok on the other comp?
