Title: Quick and Nasty SSH
Post by: Luke Drumm on February 27, 2002, 04:45:30 AM

Hi,

I have a need to temporarly provide SSH access from SME to the internet via a different port.

The 'normal' SSHD setup is configured for internal use only (via the normal port) and I would like to leave it exectly as is.

I've tried running the SSHD from the command line as follows:
# SSH -D -p ____
Where ____ is the new (1024+) port number.

Internally, I can connect to the new service (and prove that it is the correct service by killing the SSHD server and watching the connection die).

Externally all I seem to get (via Mindterm) is:

Error connecting to _______.com, reason:
-> Server closed connection before sending identifaction

Any Ideas?

Regards,
Luke
