Folks,
FWIW, I have no objections to any of the proposals and offer this
comment on the sshd port issue:
Running sshd on a port other than 22 does offer a little peace
from the script kiddies that keep hitting port 22; however, it
doesn't otherwise help security.
I wrote http://zwitterion.org/software/ssh-https-tunnel/ to
permit SSH to ports 443 and 563 via the UQ proxies, so port
563 might be a better choice and 24.
Sshd will happily run on multiple ports for a transition
period, for example, 22, 24 and 563. This would all the
impact to be immediately judged.
