Um, that would be "ONLY port 25 listening" on it's public network facing interface wouldn't it. Why would you want to expose a management protocol like ssh to the Internet? OK so leaving ssh open is convenient, but if we are talking best practice surely having your remote management protocols running on a separate network, or at the very least filtering on a host basis so that it's only listening to connects from your NOC has to be the way to do this. -- Rob.
