Hi Mr Halkoree,
I'm not sure that blocking port 22 puts UoM in a good light, as it's
supposed to be a leading a university on the island which would allow
innovative research. Ish Sookun is not a student, he was only a guest at
UoM, who was trying to access his research server. What about students who
want to access SSH for their assignments, management of their web servers,
or simply learning about UNIX with a shell account ?
I do hope that we can rely on your co-operation to solve this issue.
