Are you also behind your own router? Does it run NAT? If yes, is it configured to forward an ssh connection, from the Internet, to your local host? When you switch your ssh server (etc/ssh/sshd_config) to use a non-standard port, and if you are behind a router that is doing NAT, you will need to configure the router to forward the connection to your host. If you are behind a router, owned by the ISP, that is using NAT, our suggestions probably won't work...we need to know your network topology. How can one tell if one is behind a router that uses NAT? What is your local host's IP address? If your host's IP address is in the range, listed by rfc 1918, http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1918.txt 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255, 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255, or 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255, you are behind a router running NAT. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
