Thread: Difficulty connecting through remote ssh access

i new linux user , have linux mint installed (maya). haven't gotten responses on issue @ forums, , think it's generic enough try here.

have installed open-ssh. having difficulty connecting remotely server. running stock sshd_config. here steps i've tried results:

1) port forwarding through 2 chained routers: have 2 services running require forwarding. 1 torrent client running on windows box, other ssh on linux mint laptop. can see open torrent client port, not ssh (port 22) remote port scan. eliminate possible router issues, set both routers dmz mode, , still not see ssh port or connect remote location. torrent client port on windows box still registers open.

2) ssh connections behind routers, both windows box using putty, terminal in mac laptop, , third linux machine successful.

3) i've checked iptables, , every policy seems set accept. see below. i've posted route -n results if that's heplful.

given dmz enabled still prevents remote connections ssh, suggests me there problem on ssh service side. appreciated!

iptables -l:

code:

chain input (policy accept)  target     prot opt source               destination             chain forward (policy accept)  target     prot opt source               destination             chain output (policy accept)  target     prot opt source               destination

route -n:

code:

kernel ip routing table  destination     gateway         genmask         flags metric ref    use iface  0.0.0.0         192.168.2.1     0.0.0.0         ug    0      0        0 wlan0  169.254.0.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.0.0     u     1000   0        0 wlan0  192.168.2.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   u     2      0        0 wlan0
