Waste of time move SSH port? My fail2ban has hardly anything to do since moving port some time back. Very rarely does it see any attempts on my new odd number SSH port, but on port 22 the attacks were continuous. I agree in terms of security for a determined hacker moving port does nothing.

FWIW I found sshguard easier to deal with on FreeBSD than fail2ban.
Turn off password logins and take good care of your ssh keys. Moving sshd to a different port is a waste of time but harmless if you’re the only administrator.
