none whatsoever. The only hardware thing that is changed (sorry for
forgetting this in the first message, but I'm almost sure is
irrelevant) is the computer itself. Ubuntu, on which sshd worked fine,
was running on a very old computer. When he got a new computer, I went
there last Monday , installed F16, we carried the old PC to the
dumpster (nothing was worth recovering, power supply and other parts
were almost falling apart...), went back home and found the sshd
problem.
But internet connectivity was and remains the same: ADSL modem,
attached to the PC via Ethernet. Every other service used by my friend
works (email, Web, ftp, streaming...)
telnet his.ip.address 22 times out
Tomorrow I'll be back at his place and try the other tests suggested,
those to be run on his machine.
Thanks,
Marco
