ssh question

[Dazed_75]

Mike,
The netstat lines I think you wanted to see are:
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:22              0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN
tcp6       0      0 :::22                   :::*
LISTEN

Yes, ssh localhost works on all machines including lapdog2.  Not sure that
proves anything as the only problem is ssh TO lapdog2 from any other
machine.

stop is not a valid argument to iptables and selinux is not in play.

Steve,
Nothing in the host files.

Lisa,
Name resolution is done by dnsmasq in the router for hosts on the LAN.
Although nsswitch.conf shows files before dns, there is nothing in any of
the host files or on resolv.conf.  No dynamic dns is is use for anything on
the network.

Had you read the posts and replies, you would have seen there was no IP
error.  It was an error between the keyboard and my chair.

The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions,
that I wish it always to be kept alive.
