Re: Ubuntu Server works on Lan but not outside
Hi, ssh is a little confuseing when you are new to it.
let's see if we can remove some of the mystery.
to ssh inside the lan...you enter -> ssh -p (port#) user@ip address
ssh -p 22 aname@192.168.1.8 <-example
to ssh from OUTSIDE you enter -> ssh -p (port#) user@ROUTER ip
ssh -p 22 aname@75.100.22.39 <-example
*To find Your ROUTER IP ..from a browser connection enter -> canyouseeme.org
this will display YOUR ROUTER IP
* BEFORE you can connect from outside the lan you MUST portforward your port (22) example to your lan ip.
*example..in router port forwarding settings. -> start 22 end 22 ip 192.168.1.8
*read your router manual on HOW TO PORT FORWARD..
*note ssh to router ip from INSIDE the lan does NOT work.
hope this helps.
*edit: didnt see your attachment till after i posted. oh well..
