hello I just set up SSHd through Cygwin on a Windows XP Pro box overseas using a RAT and discluded the openssh package from the install. I ran the cywin shell (from c:\cywin) and ran Now, It's under a port I know is safe and fowarded properly, but I won't share it's number. It's not a common port, but it's under 40000. Firewalls are off etc etc. I'm on the first Admin account made on the box. (It's full admin) I've run the following commands
chmod +r /etc/passwd
chmod +r /etc/group
hmod 777 /var
/*Created New Admin User Account To Be Used via SSH*/
mkpasswd -cl > /etc/passwd
mkgroup --local > /etc/group
I can connect locally, but not externally. I know my ports etc are fine.
Any possible problems, as i really need this tunnel up :P
