Just figured out that my ssh tunnel works fine when both the client and server are inside the firewall at home. I guess the linksys firewall/router is doing something funny. Even though I can ssh to the slimserver/linux box from outside the firewall - for some reason then I come through the firewall the handshake between softsqueeze and the slimserver does not seem to work out.
BTW, I can see from /var/messages that the intial ssh login goes OK - something goes wrong after that... I'm using a sshd that is on the same server as the slimserver. So when I do this from inside the firewall I can see that the IP of the slimserver player is 127.0.0.1. I looked at the slimserver settings - but I am not blocking access from anywhere. Darn... not sure how to fix this - would be interesting to swap in a different firewall/router. I never have liked the linksys stuff I've gotten - always had better luck with netgear stuff...
