SOLVED gitlab ssh port 22, anyway to do this?

[chris]

Is there anyway to have gitlab ssh be on standard port 22?
We use automatic deployment tools that do not yet support non standard SSH ports making (laravel forge for example)/

This is currently not supported. Port 22 is one of the hardcoded reserved ones. I am not sure if it may work, but if you do not have sshd running on that port, then you may be able to create a custom iptables rule, which does the portmapping from 22 to the one used by gitlab. Maybe https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-port-redirection-with-iptables/ helps here, especially:

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 22 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080

Be sure to move SSH to a different port first using https://cloudron.io/documentation/security/#securing-ssh-access.
