newbie question on port forwarding(and ssh, netcat)
Hi debianer!
I am a newbie both of debian and networking...
Recently I am trying to connect my home laptop(I have a router in my home) from office. I read several articles on port forwarding. And I succeeded in opening an 22 port on my router, also I started ssh server on my home laptop.
(suppose my username at home is USER, and my laptop is called DEBIAN)
I did several experiment and I got confusing in some of its result.
I cant understand why is it. Because I have actually succeeded in test 1!
3. ssh -l USER my_home_external_ip
ssh: connect to host my_home_external_ip port 22: Connection refused
This also doesnt work! I thought it should be equivalent to test 1, but things just dont work.
Any one can explain this?

A bit of searching the net on port-forwarding oughta give you the answer.
You probably forgot to forward port 22 on the router to whichever ip
adress your DEBIAN has.
Search around for stuff on your router/ISP combo as they're almost
always blocked in one way or another.
