deuxcolors Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Hey ya'll. I've got an IP in China trying to get in via SSH This is from my unraid logs: Oct 13 23:33:42 Ogre sshd[21872]: Failed password for root from 221.229.172.74 port 27055 ssh2 Oct 13 23:33:42 Ogre sshd[21872]: Failed password for root from 221.229.172.74 port 27055 ssh2 Oct 13 23:33:43 Ogre sshd[21872]: Failed password for root from 221.229.172.74 port 27055 ssh2 Oct 13 23:33:43 Ogre sshd[21872]: Received disconnect from 221.229.172.74 port 27055:11: [preauth] Oct 13 23:33:43 Ogre sshd[21872]: Disconnected from 221.229.172.74 port 27055 [preauth] I just closed port port 22 on my router and the connexions stopped. Any recommendations for using SSH outside of the home? Besides VPN Spooky. Quote Link to comment
Msan Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 If you really need to access it directly without a VPN, at least put it on a non standard port.. ie. 6789 and have your router forward that to 22 on unraid.. Quote Link to comment
StevenD Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 No, spooky is thinking you can put your management interface ou on the internet and nothing will ever hit it. Quote Link to comment
Msan Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 No, spooky is thinking you can put your management interface ou on the internet and nothing will ever hit it. Well, if you have port 22 exposed, you will get hits within a day.. At least a higher non standard port will make it a bit harder for them.., Quote Link to comment

deuxcolors Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 Trying to avoid VPN but I think I'll just use it. I liked SSH because I could connect to my home and then use a proxy extension in Chrome to do what I wanted on unRAID and some other webapps without having to put my whole work computer on the VPN.

Sent from mobile I was using my router's openvpn for a long time, but it developed a bug meaning my android phone couldn't connect. So I switched to the linuxserver openvpn container. Both work well. The advantage of router based is that a restart of your Unraid box doesn't boot you off the VPN. Quote Link to comment
