Do I need to do anything special to allow hosts outside of my home network to SSH in? I am running SSH on port 21 and have opened port 21 on my Linksys router/firewall. However, I cannot connect from my work to home. I am using port 21 because the silly MS Admins where I work have port 22 blocked, yet they allow telnet.
I can ssh on my home computer using my public IP and it connects just fine. Do I need to add entries to /etc/hosts.allow?
Telnet operates on 23, FTP on 21. At least the silly MS Admins know their IANA port assignments. ;-)
