Or is this a configuration in OpenSSH? Yes, just port forward (if your router has this capability) on the source IP address (ranges) that you desire. Some routers only give you an all or none option though, so in that case you can use other security options, like tcpwrappers on the server (I don't know if your server is windows or linux-based). Otherwise, you'll start finding lots of logging info indicating failed SSH dictionary attacks login attempts. Make sure you configure AllowUsers with only yours and your wifes login names. -- MrC ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=468 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=20592 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
