OK and you've indicated that sshd is running. A few other thoughts: 1) Is there a firewall running on your machine that could be preventing the connection? 2) Is there a firewall running on your *client* machine that could be interfering. 3) Log into the FreeBSD machine and see if you can ssh to localhost to just to confirm that sshd is working. If that works, try sshing to the same machine using its IP, and then its address to make sure DNS is resolving properly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tim Daneliuk tun...@tundraware.com PGP Key: http://www.tundraware.com/PGP/ _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
