Git¶

Version Check¶

You can check the version of git installed with the following command:

SSH Port¶

If the server has port 2020 defined as the default outbound SSH port:

~]# grep Port /etc/ssh/ssh_config
   Port 2020

You will need to add a host name match to change the port to 22 in the file /etc/ssh/ssh_config:

Host github.com
    HostName github.com
    Port 22

This block needs to be added at the top of the file.

Firewall¶

You need to ensure the firewall for the server allows port 22 outbound. This can be done through the MyUKFast portal, you can find more information on this here
