Yup, ditto here.

Also ditto here, the BBS is on its own dedicated vlan with firewall rules keeping it isolated, other than the required traffic in/out to the interwebs.

I SSH into my BBS's OS (port 22) and log into my board via SSH (port 2222), but all the time, but that's mostly because I'm lazy and it auto logs me in... ;)
