Hi gurus and list,
- this one puzzels me. Just to make sure, I have to ask the obvious...
- I've got this virginal, brand new openSUSE11.3 plain vanilla install. - i can SSH into it FROM THE LOCAL NETWORK...but if I make a port forward from my firewall (ASTARO) of port 22 into the machine, I get NOTHING.
This is obviously a firewall/forwarding problem. Only if I do the same firewall/forward exercise to another machine (openSUSE11.2) on the same network, it works just fine...
I still think (absolutely) that I've got a firewall/forward problem. I suppose this wise group of list members concur?
Because....the openSUSE11.3 machine will se the inner IP of the ASTARO firewall as the origin IP and hence will no know that the connection is really originating from somewhere outside the firewall. Right?
PS: my /etc/hosts.allow and -deny are clean. No firewall running (on 11.3) and sshd.config looks straight and plain.

Do you have a file named /var/log/firewall? If so, and it has current date, you are running the susefirewall whether you know it or not. It installs silently. You can watch /var/log/messages and firewall while you attempt to connect from outside your network (smartphones are great for this) and see if anything is actually arriving on your interface. When you say "I get NOTHING" it suggests no host listening on that port at that IP. So how sure are you of the actual IP setting in the ASTARO? Are you using the standard port (22) on the 11.3 machine? If not, have you adjusted your sshd_config to add an additional port or are you relying on the ASTARO to do port conversion? -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
