Need help with SSH server

lapthorn · 04-07-2006, 09:28 AM

I have started a new job and they don't allow me to connect to my LInux at home using ssh. I feel pretty lost without it.

I have seen Mindterm SSH java applet that basically allows you to connect to SSH over the web but using there applet still gets connection refused.

Does anybody know of either an Opensource or Commercial product that I can use so that I can browse to https://mydomain.com/ssh and connect to mt ssh server that way

Is it an option you could run SSH server on Port 80, if so, that might work.

do you have access to putty or other ssh server that allows for connecting to different ports. i set my home router to accept port`s in the 9000`s as SSH and then forward them as 22 to the linux box, that way i connect to it using port`s somewher ein the 9000`s and our work doesnt block anyhtuing above 1024, they only block commons under 1024.

Thanks for the replies guys. I would like to use the idea of port forwarding but only have a Netgear DG834G that acts as the firewall and I beleive it only allows you to forward ports to LAN address. I guees maybe I could run iptables on my linux box to forward anything from localhost:9000 to localhost:22

Please ignore what I just wrote I feel almost stupid. I always wondered what the end port was for, I was thought it was to do ranges. Apologies. I feel very stupid

Dont ignore what i just wrote, my router does not do port forwarding. I will have to do it with IPTables i think

Why not? The router you mentioned Netgear DG834G does do port forwarding.

It sure does, I've set one up at work.

OK it does do port forwarding but it will only forward say WAN port 80 to LAN address port 80. I can't forward WAN port 80 to LAN port 9000. If you can then let me know how to do this, you can't do it withthe web interface!!!!

You could check to see if there's some new firmware for your router that does this?

lapthorn · 04-08-2006, 07:35 AM

I updated to lthe latest firmware of Netgears website, are you sufggesting a third party firmware???
