Solving Cannot Bind Ssh Port Error

Solving the Cannot Bind SSH Port Error

This can happen with SELinux systems like Rocky Linux.

To fix:
1- First, check if SELinux is running with “getenforce” 2- If it shows “enforcing”, then do the following: 3- run semanage port -a -t ssh_port_t -p tcp <new-port> 4- Verify the new port is added to existing allowed ports for ssh: semanage port -l | grep ssh 5- You will see your new port in the output
