Assuming you've ssh'd to yourself on box7 and that works....sounds as if your
firewall doesn't have port 22 open.
Ok,the firewall is the problem! I had run "setup" as I have done
many times and saw nothing out of the ordinary, looked the same [but
obviously something was different] so I dropped that idea.
Now I disabled the firewall and immediately got a connection from
box9, re-enabled the firewall, it still connects?
[bobg@box9 ~]$ ssh bobg(a)192.168.1.7
bobg(a)192.168.1.7's password:
Last login: Wed Aug 8 10:30:11 2012 from box9
I guess this makes me look even less competent than usual but I did
look at this earlier and saw no reason to suspect the firewall. Will
add that to my Linux notes ...
Thanks to all,
Bob
