The SSH test only proves you can access the box on TCP port 22 (assuming you're usign the defaults) from your home; this does not prove anything regarding TCP port 53 or UDP port 53, which are what DNS uses. So: 1. Open a terminal and start an SSH session to your box. In this session, disable dnsmasq then run netcat -u -l -p 53 3. On your home machine open one terminal and run netcat -u xyz 53 where xyz should be replaced with the public IP of your box. 4. Type some text then hit the Enter key on your home machine. Does your box display the text? 5. Type some other text then hit the Enter key in the shell to your box. Does the netcat running locally display the text?
