The server can connect to my box , with my IP using ssh -x
SSHD is running on my box, my router is setup to do all 'ssh' to my box.
SSHD is runing on server.
When I do ssh -x to server it just times-out, no error messages.
What network command can I use to see if 'ssh' is even getting to server
from my box.
I can ssh -x from this box to another server with no problems.
I have 'root' access to server, what can I check there? the server is
connected to a DSL AT&T black box. no router.
Both my box and server is Fedora 8.

Irrelevant, but shouldn't it be "ssh -y" now?
In any case, I would try "ssh -v" or "ssh -v -v"
to get more information.
Maybe you have a firewall running on the server
that does not allow ssh connection?
