Hi, thanks for the quick reply's. Sorry for the short coming of my bering firewall information.
Now i will give you more info. 1. You should confirm that sshd is running on the Bering firewall. YES, lrpkg -l shows that LIBZ and SSHD are running. With ps i don't see anything about SSHD. 2. Are you trying to connect to the router from the LAN side or the external side? Are you certain you are using the right IP address in either case? If the connection is external, is it possible that your ISP interferes with traffic to port 22 (ssh)? I only want to work from local to firewall. 3. Just in case ... the default in putty is a telnet connection. You are changing that to ssh, right? YES. 4. "the standard policy and rules of the bering firewall" is not really all that well-defined; there is a lot of customizing you can, and sometimes need to, do to make Shorewall work with "standard" Bering settings. You might find it worthwhile to review the output of "/sbin/shorewall status" ... or to post it here if you need help interpreting it. HOSTS.ALLOW ALL: 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 HOSTS.DENY ALL: PARANOID ALL: ALL ZONES: net net internet adsl adsl alcatel modem loc local local networks Ifaces net ppp0 - routefilter,norfc1918 adsl eth0 10.0.0.255 routefilter loc eth1 192.168.1.255 routestopped policy loc loc ACCEPT loc net ACCEPT loc fw ACCEPT fw adsl ACCEPT net all DROP ULOG all all REJECT ULOG rules ACCEPT loc fw tcp 22 5. Is your Windows host set up properly in general, with respect to its IP address, routing table, and gateway address? One test: can you ping the Bering firewall (do it from a DOS prompt if you don't have a GUI ping app installed)? If not, how does a ping attempt fail? Pinging no problem. Watching Bering via Browser no problem and internetting no problem.
