Hi, I have a similar problem, I can't ssh to the machine at home, which is FC2, from work. The answer I got is the host is unreachable. But I can ssh to the home machine internally, I mean, by "ssh 1.2.3.4", I can access to it, just a trick try. Can anybody help me how to ssh to the home machine from work(outside)? Thanks. Sorry for not contributing any to the original question. :-( Best, Cao --- "Phillip T.
