While on the problem machine, can you ssh to localhost? ssh to the IP address?

The lack of a domain should not be a problem. daniel feenberg _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
