What I have done in a similar situation is to 'assign' a port for ssh for each machine on the router. You don't have to use port 22 for ssh and in fact I think it's safer not to. So say you 'assigned' 13044 port to your son's machine (tell the router that) 13045 port to your machine etc...... Then just use port 13045 when you want to ssh to your own machine. Set your /etc/ssh/sshd_config on your machine to use port 13045 as well. -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ + Bruce S.
