Installing packages:
apt-get install binutils cpp fetchmail flex gcc libarchive-zip-perl libc6-dev libcompress-zlib-perl libdb4.3-dev libpcre3 libpopt-dev linux-kernel-headers lynx m4 make ncftp nmap openssl perl perl-modules unzip zip zlib1g-dev autoconf automake1.9 libtool bison autotools-dev g++
apt-get install ssh vim
Change SSH server listening port to something else other than the default 22. This will at least stop most of the automated password guessing programs.
vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config
Port 3232 (Make sure to pick some unused port number to use.)
Restart SSH
/etc/init.d/ssh restart
netstat –vat –c
Output should show ssh server is now listening at port 3232
SSH now to server on port 3232
ssh –l root 123.123.123.123 –p 3232
(As a security measure I will disallow root logins via SSH after I’m done setting up the server.)
Answer yes when asked “Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?
We're now logged in as root as indicated by the # sign after the hostname.
