ISP firewall? What happens if you want to connect to your own
network, via SSH or VPN?
Never do that. If I'm out of town and using my laptop the computer is
usually turned off. If I'm just running around town, and IF I should
take my laptop for some reason, I can't think of any reason I would need
to. Any pertinent data I might need at any given time is already on my
laptop. I honestly can't think of any reason to need to connect to my
desktop. Someday that may change but for
now............................. I'll cross that bridge when the time
comes. I'm sure there is some way to get there . Have to ask Sam if/when
the time comes.
I access my home system frequently. For example right now I'm at work
and getting my email from an IMAP server on my main home computer. To
get there, I run OpenVPN, which gets me through my firewall and to all
the resources on my home network. I also have SSH available, should I
choose to go that way.
