To change the SSH port number login as root, and edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config
Find the line that says Port 22 and change 22 to any number between 1024->65535 (above 30000 is best) and save the file.
Once done, run:
/etc/init.d/sshd restart
Now start a new SSH session (don’t close your existing one), to make sure that you can get in.
Hey, one more update for broadband users:
Error 1024 on Windows Vista:
1) Go to ‘Start’.
2) ‘Run’ >> ‘msconfig’.
3) Click on ‘Sartup’ on the tabs along the top.
4) Then under ‘Command’ try to find: C:\Program Files\Speedtouch\……
5) To make sure that it is ‘Speedtouch’, check that it says ‘Speedtouch’ and that it has a blue tick next to it.
6) Untick the blue tick from the box. Make sure the right one is selected or else this could harm your PC.
7) Then click on ‘Apply’ and then ‘Close’.
Restart your PC and wallah, no more error 1024!
9) Again do not try this if you are not sure about it as it can harm the computer.
You are bound to get these error once in a while, major reasons for this error:
Your account is suspended.
You have the wrong username and password.
Your dialer has gone corrupt.
How to get this error to go away:
1) Check the username and password you are typing in the dialer.
2) Check which number the dialer is dialing, it should be ’0,38′.
3) Recreate the dialer. Steps to recreate dialer:
a) Go to ‘Start’ >> ‘Control Panel’ >> ‘Network Connections’ >> on the left hand side you have the option ‘Create a New Connection’.
b) Follow the steps as: click on ‘Next’ >> ‘Connect to Internet’ >> ‘Setup Connection Manually’ >> ‘Connect Using Dialup Modem’ >> ‘ISDN Channel’ >> type: Tiscali as ISP provider >> dialup number as ’0,38′ >> then enter your username and password >> click ‘Finish’.
4) Try to connect. Ths should work If your acount is not suspended. If no, call the tech Support or better, billing to confrim whether your account is suspended or not.
You are bound to get this error if you are using a ADSL modem and your BB (BroadBand Signal) does not reach your premises. To confirm this, the ADSL light on the modem will be flashing or completely off.
The necessary steps that you need to perform before you call the Tech Support:
1) Reinstall the Modem.
2) Swap the filters.
3) Check that you are not using a extension cable. It’s advisable to use a RJ11 Cable, however it should not be more than 10m long.
4) Also try and remove the ADSL cable from the modem and then plug it back in again.
5) Also try and connect to the main BT socket, as the connection is the strongest there.
6) If nothing works, call tech support and ask them to perfom a woosh test or line test, and let the tech support agent know all the troubleshooting that you have performed.
1) First run the installation CD as normal.
2) Then the CD will get stuck after reaching the stage:
“Plug the USB Modem into the PC or Laptop”
3) Press the “Esc” key on your keyboard.
4) The installation will close.
5) Then go to ‘Start’ >> ‘Connect To’ >> and create a dialer.
6) After the dialer is created, you will be connected.
7) This will work for most of the cases (60% to 70%).
If not, you have to just use the Speedtouch modem.
