Hello all

can any one show a detailed "How to" to solve this warning i keep getting in csf

For ultimate SSH security, you should consider disabling PasswordAuthentication and only allow access using PubkeyAuthentication

Thanks in advance
 
What does this have to do with directadmin?

Do what it tells you and edit your sshd config.
 
I wouldnt suggest you to use Public Key Auth unless you are expert with that and log usually from few computer (every computer will need to have a own key for the server).

Regards
 
We use this on every server. Use Google if you are unfamiliar with key authentication. It is not that difficult. But be careful, changing your configuration can block you from accessing your server through SSH.
