SSH through ADSL router

christophernaveen · 11-01-2010, 04:08 AM

Hello,

I would appreciate, if you could help me with my request.

1) I have an ADSL router for internet and RHL box sitting on the southside of the southside of the router with local IP configured.

I have to access the Linux box through the internet.

I have tried to port forward the SSH port on the ADSL router, that is not working.

I would appreciate, if someone could suggest me what should I do?

Many thanks,
Christopher

Tell what exactly you did post your IPTABLE rule and also the IP of RHL box.
What were the steps which you tried and how you came at conclusion that it did not worked.

In addition to the answer from jamesbon :
Make sure port 22 isn't blocked by your provider or the firewall from where you are connecting.

Kind regards

Hello Ganesh

Let me explain my issues.

Linux box is running a application which can accept client connections on the port 8101.

I have an ADSL router, Linux box sits behind this ADSL router. In the ADSL I have forwarded port 22 and 8101.

So that client can connect to the Linux application through the internet with the wan IP and port 8101.

Myself can connect from internet to this Linux box through wan IP and 22 for any management activities.

Hope I have made my request clear

Thanks
Chris

You still have to connect to port 22, since 22 is forwarded to 8101

Kind regards

Simply you have to nating on your ADSL router toward your linux box local IP. It will fulfill your requirement.
