How to install Secure Shell (SSH) / Secure FTP (SFTP) Server in Ubuntu. I go through the recommended level of security settings to run an SSH server to be able to execute terminal commands or transfer files securely.
Instructions:
sudo apt-get install ssh
sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config

ssh user@192.168.0.1 to connect to the SSH server from a Linux system
From Windows use PuTTY or WinSCP

IPTables firewall settings: http://blog.zioup.org//2008/iptables_recent/
Optional firewall for Ubuntu Desktop: GUFW
Optional firewall for Ubuntu Server: Webmin
Webmin is a great server config suite, but do not install it on an Ubuntu dekstop system because it will break the network settings.
