Early Notice of Changes to SSH

Hello everyone,

If you use ssh to connect to git (as-in you have a publickey registered with the Tukui gitlab server), on January 15th 2019 the following changes will be made to the ssh server on tukui.org:

The port to connect to the server will be changed from 22 to 47333.

This is being done to make the server more secure and less prone to brute force attacks on our ssh server.

The work around for this is as follows:

For Mac OS X, Linux, or WSL:

Create a file (if it does not exist) in your .ssh directory called config.
- Have the following in it:
  - Host git.tukui.org
  - Port 47333
  - User <yourusername>

For Windows:

It depends on how you connect to the git repo.

If you use the system ssh client then the .ssh config approach works here too:
- Create a file (if it does not exist) in your .ssh directory called config.
- Have the following in it:
  - Host git.tukui.org
  - Port 47333
  - User <yourusername>
if you use software that uses a built-in ssh client then you can either edit the remote or re-clone the repository with the URL found on your project page.
if you use putty then you will need to consult online documentation for your exact setup.

The port change is live now, so you can safely create these configs now and connect using port 47333.

On the date mentioned above, Jan 15 2019, access to port 22 will be removed and you will no longer be able to access git over ssh using that port.
