SSH on Mac

[Dynash]

How do you work SSH in Terminal to use a different port?

I know the switch is -p but I've tried;

ssh root antsta.com -p @@ but it doesn't work correctly. It's trying to connect to the default port, 22.

have you tried
site.com:xx

have you tried
First thing I tried, still tries to use 22.

Maybe try:


ssh -p yourport root@antsta.com

It's been a while since I used a Mac / Linux on a Home PC.

[bariteau]

ssh root antsta.com -p @@

just noticed that it seems like your missing a @, it should be ssh root@antsta.com -p xx

not sure if it's a typo but that might be the issue if you're having problems

# In the terminal window enter the following: ssh username@domainname.com
* username: enter your username
* domainname.com: enter your domain name
# Press the Enter key.
# Enter your password when prompted.
# Press the Enter key.

if you need to specify port...

# In the terminal window enter the following: ssh -p 22 username@domainname.com
* 22: the port you want to connect to
* username: enter your username
* domainname.com: enter your domain name
# Press the Enter key.
# Enter your password when prompted.
# Press the Enter key.


For a list of ssh options enter:

man ssh

I've did them both, they didn't work for me :l I even checked man ssh before I posted - that's how I got it in the first place :p

@bariteau - You can do it root@antsta.com or root{space}antsta.com
