Question, my 3 Mac's are all on 10.5.4 and looking at the ssh_config file show version v1.22 versus the
v1.74 that is in the video. On my systems I only have the “Protocol 2″ line to modify, all the other lines are missing.
Is there another video or white paper to look at about keeping current above the security patches that Apple “Software Update” installs?

oops… I was editing the ssh_config versus the sshd_config file. My mistake.
Suggestion for a program on security and patching and rolling your own beyond what Apple provides as part of the “Software Update” still stands. Thanks for the good work.

You can just simple add the lines I indicate to uncomment and you should be fine.

At the screencasting part I type my password, but I am not allowed to connect. Any idea on why that might happen on 10.5.8?

Excuse my ignorance but when I click the sshd config link above to download it comes up in my browser but how do I put it on my system – just copy it to my desktop in a text file?

After it comes up on your browser just do a file save as and save it as text file.
