Hi Listmates,
I'd like to perform an ssh-based network installation on a remote machine using OpenSUSE net install CD. The remote machine is behind a DSL-router that gets dynamic public IP address from the internet provider. My problem is that I cannot connect to it from my local machine without knowing the public IP address of the router because the remote machine has a private IP address.
Whether or not you know the public address, you will also need to set up port forwarding on the router (i.e. forward port 22 to your remote machine.)
Is it possible to find out the public IP address of the DSL router on the other side after starting the installation program from the CD?
The router probably supports that - maybe via telnet or a web-browser. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (-0.9°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
