ssh is on by default and port 22 is open in the firewall
In system-config-firewall --> Trusted services
they removed the hash from SSH so the novice enduser
would not notice it.... ( It shows in Other ports now )
Hmm, then I must have disabled ssh somewhen... I Just cannot remember.
Services that are not needed for system functionality
and network connection should be turned of by default
IMO every service that offers a "service" to the network should be off
by default.
