Quoting "M. Fioretti" <mfioretti@xxxxxxxxxxx>:
Greetings,
I have just installed F16 on a friend's box. Now I want to enable sshd in
order to log in from home and do system administration, updates, etc...
for him.
Before F16, the same box was running Ubuntu and I could log in via ssh
without problems. Now every attempt from my home times out.
I have already enabled sshd, iptables (see below), and used the firewall
config tool to enable allow ssh incoming connections, but every attempt
times out.
Surely I'm missing something obvious, but what? Thanks in advance for any
pointer,
Marco

How is this box connected to the outside world? Have there been ANY
networking changes wrt the internet connection? I agree with the other
person who suggested verifying that the SSH port is accessible via the
outside world. Also, you might want to try a "special" (ie >1024, I
think it is) port in case your friend's internet provider is blocking
those port numbers. Some internet providers will block all "normal"
ports inbound so that you can't run a "server" from a home connection.
