SSH help

YellowFin · 12-06-2005, 09:44 PM

here is my situation,

At Location One i cant ssh to an outside address (wat wouldbe my home server)
^(work)^ i can ssh to local adresses
At Location Two i can ssh to location one
^(home)^ i can ssh to local adresses

so basically i can ssh to location one from two, but can not ssh to location two from one.

If you can understand that....lol

does any one know how to be able to bypass a port block or somother block, ( i am not sure what is blocked)

any help will be greatly apperciated.

Thanks, Kevin

1. if your office is blocking ports its probably for a reason and you could get fired.

2. you can use a different port that they are not blocking. i use 82.

If your location one is behind a router, then you have to make the router forward incoming port 22 to your machine or something like that.

also i am not so sure, but check whether or not sshd is running on your work m/c and check wht port it is using. As pointed out, you might need to add some firewall rule to allow packets coming from a WAN side. But many offices do not allow traffic to all ports coming from the outside world.

how do you do that, say the home server scans/recives connections on port 1546

ssh -P 1546 name@255.255.255.255
