Data transfer in Linux
Please let me know which ports are used for data transfer, as per my understaning in Linux below ports are used for data transfer from windows to Linux.

Code:
 ftp 21 
 sftp 22 (Most secure Port)
 telnet 23

any other port?

wheather we can change the port no 22 to any other port no for a particular user only and how?

To change ports SSH ports, first edit as root, the sshd configuration file.

Code:
vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Then edit the line which states 'Port 22' and choose an appropriate port not already used on the system.

Doing this, you must be aware that some ports should NOT be used (0 through 1023) and better avoid those from 1024 through 49151. Pick up one from 49152 through 65535 and you'll be fine for now.

Last, restart SSH :

Code:
/etc/init.d/ssh restart

And then see if SSH is listening on the new port (Port number now needs to be declared).

Code:
ssh username@hostname.com -p 49951

Port redirection may also be an option (see in your router). I don't know what you're aiming at. Could you be more specific ?

Just add additional port(s) in the config file sshd_config

As per manual page.
Code:
Port     Specifies the port number that sshd(8) listens on.
            The default is 22.  Multiple options of this type are permitted.  See also
             ListenAddress.
.....
             If port is not specified, sshd will listen on the address and all
             prior Port options specified.  The default is to listen on all
             local addresses.  Multiple ListenAddress options are permitted.
             Additionally, any Port options must precede this option for non-
             port qualified addresses.

It is a good thing to read those.

Peasant.

Not sure to understand... Let's say you have user1's SSH port set on 49592 on his machine. That means you can reach him by ssh on this port. Other users on the network will remain accessible on port 22.

To be more specific, are you trying to reach one user in particular from outside of the network at a specific port or are we talking of doing so from the same network ?

Say user A,B,C should be able to connect ssh only on port 22,

user D will be able to connect only on port 49592 for ssh ,not able to connect on port 22,

From network A to network B or within the same network ?
