I have a very straightforward Debian Jessie machine on my network. For
SSH it uses the standard/default Port 22 and accessing it via ssh works
just fine from anywhere on the local network.
I also have a NetGear router configured so that a connection from the
outside world using Port 1024 gets forwarded to the local IP and Port 22
on the LAN. My problem is when I attempt a connection from the outside
world the connection is refused.
Is there another setting on the Debian Jessie system I need to configure
or do you believe this is a router configuration problem? If I just
allow the forwarding (externally) to forward on Port 22 things work as
expected.
Thanks,
Tim
