SSH Remote Login Failure. . .

Probably not the place for this, but here goes. . .

HOME SERVERS: Ubuntu 5.04, OS X (10.4), Windows XP SP2
ROUTERS TESTED: DLink DI-624 and Hawking HWR54G

PROBLEM: As of Monday (5-8-06) I can no longer log in remotely or port forward to my home machines from any of my Macs. However, all Linux boxes (and even Windows running Cygwin) can still log in and port forward to my home machines.

NOTE: Behind the router(s) all machines can communicate fine; Macs included.

VARIABLE: My ISP changed CLASS A domains over the weekend.

QUESTION: Is there *anything* in the world that could have occurred so that traffic from all Macintoshes (I have 6: 2PBs, 1 iMac, 3 Towers) is relegated to nothingness?

It's not a fix, but. . .

In case anyone actually read this thread in the first place, I found a workaround for my issue. I actually used Fink to install OpenSSH, and simply use that to SSH in to my home machines. I keep testing both on a regular basis, even sniffing traffic, and I really see no difference. All I know is that OpenSSH works, and suddenly standard Mac SSH doesn't. . .

wild guesses...

the only thing that came to my mind was:

Does the standard macssh supports SSH V2, or not?
or, what about OpenSSH ports for Mac?

BTW. ethereal rocks!

Hello,

I'm having the same issue:

I have two Dell Precision 390s running Red Hat Enterprise 4 WS. I can SSH (telnet and FTP) into these two machines just fine from inside the LAN (192.168.1.X or 192.168.0.X). When I try to go through my DI-624 (revision C), though, I get a time out.

I set up the connection to using the "virtual server" feature. The public port is 10022, the private port is 22, the private IP is the IP of one of the Dell 390s.

Any suggestions by anyone?

Bert.
