Not sure on the exact model, but I have a Belkin wireless G router.

I would like to be able to ssh (amongst other activities) to m home machines from outside my home network.

I have DNS entries already setup for these purposes, so my only issue now is getting port-forwarding to work.

I'd like to run ssh on one external port (say, 106) to forward to one machine internally (on port 22), and open a different external port (maybe 3333) to forward to port 22 on a different machine on my network.

You can see from the this first screenshot the ports Skype has opened.

skype ports work!

And from the second one the port I'm trying to open.

ssh doesn't :(

However, the second opening is unsuccessful, while the first works like a champ.

What am I doing wrong?

What indication do you have it's not working? Have you tried telnetting in on that port from the outside to see if you get through at all? – JNK Jul 29 '10 at 20:29
I can't telnet-through, nor ssh – warren Jul 29 '10 at 20:31
You are positive it's not something silly like a software firewall on the target machine? – JNK Jul 29 '10 at 20:41
@JNK - not 100% positive, but I have sharing over ssh turned-on on the target Mac – warren Jul 29 '10 at 21:01
@JNK - my timeout is happening on being unable to connect to the external port, not on authentication to the target device inside the network – warren Jul 30 '10 at 12:55
