Are you using a router/firewall on the network with the services? Make sure you forward to the correct port and IP on the actual box hosting the specified service (i.e. port 22 for ssh). Cox is relatively hostile regarding users running servers of any kind. They scan your machine multiple times a day, specifically looking for news servers (amongst others). Use snort or some form of IDS to determine what the originating IP of the scan is (when I found it, it was called authorized-scan.home.net or something similar) and simply firewall that host from accessing your machine. Hope this helps. -Sean -----Original Message----- From: Jim Freeze [mailto:jim@freeze.org] Sent: Friday, June 01, 2001 8:07 AM To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Why would my system be unaccessible? Hi My system, which I think is running ok, is all of a sudden unaccessible. Trying to ssh into the machine hangs, yet sshd is running. Trying to go to a web page returns nothing, yet apache is running. To add to the confusion, ping says it is alive. Can someone suggest why or help me debug why this is happening? The ip is 24.9.218.175. This is what ssh does: ssh -v 24.9.218.175 OpenSSH_2.5.2p2, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090600f debug1: Seeded RNG with 39 bytes from programs debug1: Seeded RNG with 3 bytes from system calls debug1: Rhosts Authentication disabled, originating port will not be trusted. debug1: ssh_connect: getuid 1054 geteuid 0 anon 1 debug1: Connecting to 24.9.218.175 [24.9.218.175] port 22. debug1: connect: Connection timed out debug1: Trying again... debug1: Connecting to 24.9.218.175 [24.9.218.175] port 22. debug1: connect: Connection timed out ...
