You're correct. It's all inside. Here are my ssh paths:

  router <-only-> linus ---- hendriena ---- gypsy

Now from the outside I can ssh into linus, and from linus I can
ping/ssh hendriena, but from linus I can only ping gypsy. So I go home
and go to a workstation (hendriena); and I can ping/ssh linus, but
I can only ping gypsy.

So the problem is there within, but I saw it first from without.

How do you reference linus, hendriena and gypsy, by hostname IP or
otherwise? SSH depends upon dns for some of it's identification
information. When DNS doesn't work right, hostnames don't resolve and
ssh slows or doesn't function. Are these machines getting IP addresses
by dhcp or fixed?


Good points -- you might also want to check for erroneous entries in (various machines') /etc/hosts file(s). That might confuse ssh or sshd trying to do dns or reverse dns lookups respectively.
