I want to be able to access files on my new Raspberry Pi remotely. So I enabled sftp, but I cannot manage to access it remotely. Here are the details of the setup:
- I can access sftp on the Pi from my local network.
- My router is an Apple Airport Express, and port forwarding is set up. I know it can work as I am using it successfully with Microsoft Remote Desktop. For sftp-ing the Pi, I forwarded the sftp port to the local IP. I tried both port 22(router)->22(pi) and 8022->22.
If I dont do the port forwarding, the sftp client returns connection refused. When I enable the port forwarding, it always times out?!
Am I missing something here? Any advice/comments more than welcome.
Thanks
