You might have read that I wasted some days trying to get ssh work through a D-Link DSL-504T router only to know from D-Link that "yes, we have succeeded to replicate the problem here. And yes, it *is* a bug in the *router* firmware. We have already signalled it to R&D, which will fix it in the next release of the firmware..." In the meantime, I do need to do ssh soon. I was thinking to keep email, www, anything else go ADSL through eth0 and reroute only ssh/scp (to *any* server) through ppp0. How should I do it?
