I have agreed to install RMS on a server; this will be my first attempt at installing RMS so I am agreeing to do it for free as a learning process. I attempted to shell into the server but got a connection refused. The server has WHM control panel. I have limited knowledge of WHM; can I install RMS through WHM and if yes, what is the procedure?

From my experience, a lot of VPS providers change the SSH port to something else (e.g., 2222). Verify the SSH connection details with your client (they may need to consult their host). BoonEx Certified Host: Zarconia.net - Fully Supported Shared and Dedicated for Dolphin |
Thanks, user has told me he no longer needs RMS installed. Geeks, making the world a better place |

I actually do that myself on VPS or Deds. I change the port on my ded every once in a while. SSH is one of the most widely attacked ports for hackers trying to brute force passwords.

I set the port to only allow connections from the IP address the team uses. For everyone else, they see nothing, no messages; it just drops the connection.

The infamous ssh port 2222 is probably the second most widely scanned port. I love it when a provider says we have additional security measures in place, and what they mean is they have changed the default ssh port 22 to 2222.
Wow...major security enhancements there.
