10.4: Stop Bonjour from broadcasting ssh/sftp, plus...
Authored by: mmnw on Jun 25, '07 08:54:09AM

You could also use a launchd editor like Lingon to stop advertising via Bonjour. Just open Lingon, switch to the "System Daemons" Tab and edit the daemons you like, i.e. "com.openssh.sshd" which would be the ssh-daemon. The bonjour options are at the bottom of the "Sockets" tab. You can disable it at all or just remove (or even add) the entries you like.
Afterwards you can even stop and restart the ssh daemon via Lingon.
I guess that is the safer method for inexpirienced user than deleting lines from the plist-file (also it does the same).
Note: Lingon will ask for administrator-privileges several times, of course you will need these to perform the changes.
