Changing SSH port

Changing the SSH port was needed to able to set the router to allow port forwarding.

Using Vi:

  1. I removed the comment sign (#) in front of the line "Port"
  2. I also removed the comment sign in front the "PermitRootLogin yes" (this is not good practice so I'll have to change it in the future but for now I wanted to make sure I didn't lock myself out)
Tested using Putty and this worked.

Great !
