So with poet knocking, if I only have an ssh port open and a couple of ports my servers server content on like an http and https server, I'm assuming id use port knocking to get inside my ssh port right? I don't need to do port knocking for my http and https ports because they're open but not as an ssh service?

Yes, that's right - you'd leave your public services open by default and the knock would simply open up tcp22 ...

Knocking a poet is bound to get you into trouble. Poets fight back, and hard. Just don't do it.

But they're just so damn eloquent all the time. It drives me nuts.
