Re: [suse-security] safety with scp

[Daryl W Smith - TestEng <dwsmith@xxxxxxxxxx>]

If you are running a web server on this box and feel
that it is secure enough, I've had success using
a script (with a very obscure name and some form 
of authentication) that will enable or disable 
ssh/scp/sftp.  That way you can connect to the 
webserver and enable/disable the ssh functionality
at your discretion.  Not perfect, but it works.
