I had it set to forward *only* the non- standard port, but for some reason that doesn't appear to be working. However, I got into the router and re-enabled the port 22 forward and it's working now. I don't like having that port enabled though, so I'm going to have to play with it and see if I can't get the non-standard port working again... funny thing, it *was* working in FC6. I think I'll back up the current sshd_config and copy the one from FC6 in and see if that makes a difference. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
