[Guide] Setup SSH ( CentOS Linux )

[Sutz]

 

 

OpenSSH Installations under CentOS Linux

 

To install the server type:

yum -y install openssh-server

 

Start the service:

chkconfig sshd on
service sshd start

 

Make sure port 22 is opened:

netstat -tulpn | grep :22

 

 

Firewall Settings

 

Edit /etc/sysconfig/iptables (IPv4 firewall),

vi /etc/sysconfig/iptables

 

Add the line

-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT

 

Save and close the file. Restart iptables:

service iptables restart

 

Download 2 for windows to connect to the Linux ssh server

 

Open WinSCP to be greeted with a login window, so click the NEW button (on the left find Connection -> Tunnel (click the Tunnel) then tick the box to connect through SSH tunnel an fill in the info.

 

Host = vbox lan ip

User = root

Pass = root password (reverse) if the pre-installed "snapshot" you can download.

 

Save!

 

Connect!

 

If it asks for info again just put the same again an it should connect.

 

Now you can enjoy easy file send/editing
