I figure port 22 isn't allowed out through my work firewall and was trying
other ports that *are* allowed. Secondly, I'm not running external ftp
services anyhow so using port 21 isn't a problem.

Just trying stuff there.

hosts.allow has entries only for other local machines but a virtual
machine running in vmware and not listed in hosts.allow was able to
connect.

Still stumped, I've asked work to enable port 22 for my work box so I'll
wait for that and see if I get any further. I suspect it's the work
firewall now.
