Give out static IP addresses for your internal boxen, or at least the ones that you want to ssh to from outside. IIRC, you should be able to mix and match by setting the DHCP server in the router to start a high number which effectively reserves the lower numbers for static use.

You may also have to set up port forwarding on your DSL `modem' before it will allow connections from outside to come in. Most of those things are really routers that do NAT and reject connections not initiated by something on the inside of the network.

telnet to it's IP address from inside your network by lm (2.00 / 0) #15 Thu May 11, 2006 at 03:26:09 PM EST
I bet you a donut that you'll either get a shell or a login prompt, most likely the latter.

Not sure what it's IP addy would be. It's on the other side of the router, you see. Router is 192.168.1.1; the DHCP clients are .1.100-series names, and I think that's all it'll tell me about.

The IP of the ``modem'' by lm (2.00 / 0) #18 Thu May 11, 2006 at 03:57:33 PM EST
Is the default gateway used by your linksys router.

I don't want to strain my back because I'm carrying around a pony keg under my shirt from eating three donuts.
