Unless you have very specific needs that are somehow not met by GENERIC, the general advice is to not bother compiling your own. > sshd is running and I can ssh into the local machine using ssh > 192.168.1.4 > > However, if I attempt to ssh into the box from another machine on > the network, I get "Operation timed out" I'd try the obvious things first, like checking that the boxes on the local net agree on the netmask, check that they can ping each other, check ifconfig output to see that you actually have a link (you want "status: active" in the output for the relevant interface) and so on. > I tried disabling pf by adding PF=NO to rc.conf.local, to make sure > that that wasn't the culprit, but that didn't help.
