Hi guys, I have a question about my ssh server. My network consists of a router implementing NAT and 2 computers in LAN. I have the ssh server on my desktop and try to access it from my laptop. When I ssh to the server using its private address all works like a charm but when I try to use the external IP, it doesn't. And yes, the router has port forwarding enabled for that port.
The error I get is: pa...@mio:~$ ssh -vvv XXXXX.joe.nu OpenSSH_5.1p1 Debian-5, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007 debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config debug1: Applying options for * debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 0 debug1: Connecting to XXXXX.joe.nu [87.220.253.239] port 22. debug1: Connection established. debug1: identity file /home/pablo/.ssh/identity type -1 debug1: identity file /home/pablo/.ssh/id_rsa type -1 debug1: identity file /home/pablo/.ssh/id_dsa type -1 ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host pa...@mio:~$ I don't get the error if I use the private IP: pa...@mio:~$ ssh 192.168.1.10 [email protected]'s password: Linux kaziem 2.6.26-1-686 #1 SMP Sat Jan 10 18:29:31 UTC 2009 i686 The programs included with the Debian GNU/Linux system are free software; the exact distribution terms for each program are described in the individual files in /usr/share/doc/*/copyright.

I can't test if my ssh server works (or web server, or ddbb server) except if I ask for external help?
