Im doing my head in trying to get Softsqueeze to work across the internet via SSH and have read (and tried) all the suggestions on here but with limited success so hope someone can suggest a fix.
First of all my setup: Home PC has the Slim and SSH server installed on it and the XP firewall has been configured to allow SSH(22) and Slimserver(9000&3483) through. Router has been setup so SSH & Slimserver ports forward to home PC. Work PC is running Putty and obviously Softsqueeze. First of all I tried configuring Softsqueeze to use the built-in SSH but just could not connect no matter what I tried. Well it did actually start talking to my home PC because I got the usual warning messages and was prompted for user name and password but after that it just gave the message Failed to connect so I then started using Putty. I have it configured so that local port 9000 connects to madeupname.homedns.org:9000 and local port 3483 connects to madeupname.homedns.org:3483 (Im using the DynDNS service). Running Putty connects and allows me to login without a problem and running netstat a on my work PC shows that a connection has been made to my home PC on port 22. I then run Softsqueeze which has been configured to localhost in the network section and no SSH but all I get is a repeated message saying lost contact with Slimserver. Everything seems to be in place and working as I can connect to my Slimserver via a browser using madeupname.homedns.org:9000 and if I configure Softsqueeze to madeupname.homedns.org in the network section it connects and work perfectly. The drawback with that is that it is not running via SSH. At this stage I just cannot think what more to try so any suggestions are most welcome. -- eagleeye ------------------------------------------------------------------------ eagleeye's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4780 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=20592 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
