It's a workaround, but it works.

All this script does is add a iptables rule to the device's firewall, and it is only for incoming connections. It does not stop you from ssh'ing from the device over 3g.

You can also easily remove the iptables rule that it adds with:

Code:

/sbin/iptables -D INPUT -i gprs0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 22
 -j DROP

Note though that you would need to do this after ever reboot of the device. And also because of aegis weirdness you have to do this as "user" not as "root".
