[newbie] SSHD question

[Zane Minninger]

Hello all, I am incredibly new to Linux/Unix and have minor experience. With that in mind, I am having SSHD problems. I can connect to it on my internal LAN, but reaching from outside (Internet) it doesn't seem to acknowledge the connection. I am using MDK 9.0, fresh install with all the server basics and no GUI/workstation. I prefer command prompt. The last time I had this problem on MDK 8.2, I played with the files and got it to stop working all together. Oops. So, I was wondering where I could find the place that told it to look for connection from anyone/anything. I have don't have a fire wall up yet and since I spend so much time at work, I figured I would probably work on it more there than at home...if SSHD would accept my connection. Any suggestions would be helpful. I have already looked through the documents and the past posts. The documentation doesn't help a lot and is mildly confusing. Thank you all so much.
