It seems that you work computers are behind the firewall, since you can't= ssh=20 into your work computer. =20 If you have NATed computers at work, forward the incoming traffic on the = port=20 22 to your internal NATed computer's port 22, assuming that the sshd is u= sing=20 the default port 22. Of course, you'll have to allow all traffic coming = into=20 port 22. If your work computer has its own designated IP addr., just allow all inc= oming=20 traffic on port 22 (for your computer's IP addr only) in the firewall's=20 configuration. There can also be other possibilities that are causing this issue, but I = think=20 this should take care of the problem. Please feel free to edit/fix the=20 solutions that I've given above. good luck, Naydoe Maung To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
