[arm-allstar] SSH port

[Doug Crompton]

You should not need to enable the firewall in most situations where you have a router between your LAN and WAN. That is taken care of very well by the router assuming you are not running your BBB or RPi2 in the DMZ or forwarding crazy ports to it.
The ssh port does NOT have to be port forwarded in the router unless you want or need external control of your BBB or RPi2 outside of your LAN. 

The default ssh port is 222. I generally go up from there for multiple servers - 223, 224, etc.

Subject: [arm-allstar] SSH port

So I wanted to change my ssh port on my BBB to something non standard. 
I typed cd /etc/ssh

Nano ssh_config
I then found port 222 and changed it to 1978
I tried service ssh restart...no joy

Restart sshd.service...nothing

Reboot ssh
Server by the look of things just rebooted. 
So my guess is I need to get out the monitor and connect it. Can anyone help me out of the ditch here?
I was able to accomplish this no problem on my RPI2 but that was a plex media server. I must of made a typo somehow. Port 222 also does not work.
