Per previous thread where I was asking about options for running an SSH server on my box, I ran apt-get install ssh. I was asked a few simple questions and chose support for SSH 1 & 2 and selected Yes for the use of some encryption key protocol. After the install, my box, which was working perfectly and took hours to set up is now totally hosed!!
I have 2 connections on the computer. Internet going through ppp0 and Ethernet connecting the box to the LAN. For whatever reason, my box always treated my 1492 port as Eth0 (which was not used) and my NIC as Eth1. For no apparent reason, after the install of SSH, my NIC is now detected by the system as Eth0 - but that is not the end of my problems... My ppp0 connection connects and dials up without issue. However, for whatever reason, it is no longer pingable from the outside. I can ping out, but services behind the box can no longer be reached! I am about to pull my hair out!! At this point I am willing to just get rid of SSH so I ran apt-get remove SSH, but my system did not go back to pre-installation condition. Is there any way to UNINSTALL SSH and have my box back the way it was?! Tyson Varosyan Technical Manager, Uptime Technical Solutions LLC.
