Hello there, I don't know if you still have this problem ... Sometimes it happens when one tries to do a ssh forwarding on some LAN station but the firewall doesn't have the following line in /etc/hosts.allow: ALL:sshd ALL One needs this line because /etc/hosts.deny has the following entries: ALL:ALL EXCEPT localhost:DENY sincerely, -- Florin http://www.mandrakesoft.com
