I`m using a router, which acts as a hub at the same time, to provide access internet. And I want to be able to access my computer from a remote host (outside the local network). I found the idea about making sshd listen on the telnet port quite interesting, how do I achieve this? David -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
