Hello from Gregg C Levine
(Long post follows.)
Do any of you have any ideas for configuring a DSL router? This is a LinkSYS
model BEFSR41. It comes preconfigured on its setup pages for configuring the
basic services, examples are FTP, and Telnet, also the mail services. FTP works, I
can send files to my laptop dialed into AT&T Worldnet, and I can SSH to it. Since
I was able to tell it, in the extra services blanks for SSH, but since I didn't know
what the actual port pair was, I simply put down 22 for both, since I remembered
seeing that number. And 5901 for VNC. However, for a project that I'm doing for a
customeer, I need to be able to SSH from his site, into the Linux box. The same
goes for VNC. The helpdesk for the router, doesn't really want to support Linux,
even though that's what the router has inside. Therefore I would greatly appreciate
finding out what port pairs, I need for both, to SSH from a remote site to here, and
VNC from that same remote site, to here.
