Full Discussion: Setting up SSH on Fedora Linux
Operating Systems Linux Setting up SSH on Fedora Linux Post 86563 by cbkihong on Saturday 15th of October 2005 10:32:18 AM

SSH is by default installed and started automatically with Fedora Core. But bear in mind that by default there is a firewall configured which blocks external access. You'll need to open that port if you want to allow external access.

I do it manually by editing the firewall rules created with the iptables command line program according to my needs, and update the rules cache with iptables-save so that the next time the firewall rules are loaded from cache the changes will then take effect. You should probably add a rule at the top of the INPUT chain to only allow the netblock of your remote host to access your SSH server. After all, opening the SSH port to everyone on the Net is never a good idea.
