Hi debianer! I am a newbie both of debian and networking... Recently I am trying to connect my home laptop(I have a router in my home) from office. I read several articles on port forwarding. And I succeeded in opening an 22 port on my router, also I started ssh server on my home laptop.
(suppose my username at home is USER, and my laptop is called DEBIAN) I did several experiment and I got confusing in some of its result. 1. ssh USER@DEBIAN works well!! 2. nc -vz my_home_external_ip 22 [my_home_external_ip] 22 (ssh) : Connection refused I cant understand why is it. Because I have actually succeeded in test 1! 3. ssh -l USER my_home_external_ip ssh: connect to host my_home_external_ip port 22: Connection refused This also doesnt work! I thought it should be equivalent to test 1, but things just dont work. Any one can explain this? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
