No it wasn't InteractiveBastille :-) It was something downloaded from
the net. I'll try SSH first of course, but it's not easy trying to sort
these things out when the other machine is on dial-up. I'm pretty sure
I stopped all outside activity. What is the best program I can run on
Mandrake
Try nmap, or the GUI front end nmapfe;

No it wasn't
It was probably pmfirewall (excellent, and deservably popular at the
time) - do a search and you may find it. If not, I may have a copy that
I can look at and see what can be done - email me privately if so.
Alternative is to just email the other office the ipchains command to
open port 22 and
Yes that's it, pmfirewall. A very handy little program. Does the
following command allow accepting of SSH if pmfirewall has turned it
off? -
ipchains -A input -p TCP -d any/0 22 -j ACCEPT
I'm not very familiar with the command line program they should run to
figure out if sshd is running.
