Re: Is port 22 safe for SSH through firewall?



I know but I have a few non tech staff users that want access to our file
server who are competent enough to use an SFTP or SCP client with detailed
instructions, but to set up a VPN we have found it takes a few more steps
like editing their home routers to allow vpn passthrough and I think it goes
beyond a few of them. Look for a safe, but not totally complicated solution
to remote file access.
