thanks Richard,
No, its not a privately addressed host- i havejust had a friend log in
from a foreign network.
i still cannot get in .
i also get an error message- connection timed out, if i try to ssh
directly. (no route to host would appear when i ssh-ed into another
sever and then tried to ssh from there into my sytem.)
would appreciate any ideas
t.i.a
