# not a problem - I'll figure it out for myself I'm sure
it's just a bit of a frustration at the moment -- also I've just tried to SSH into it from work and that's not fucking working any more either.

I'm starting to think Ubuntu isn't as fun and easy to use as I had at first believed... either that or I don't really have a static IP address...

# the ssh crap is probably your firewall (ufw probably) blocking anything non local
or it's blocked higher up in the chain.

ubuntu is fairly simple. but you still need to set it up properly (yes those dirty dirty term windows rather than the nice happy guis)

ed: oh your work box may have changed ip addys? look at key exchange between them then. you have physical access to both of them.

# I'm suspicious I need to look at dynamic DNS
- I'm not sure I have a static IP address... although I thought I did.

Things don't seem to stay working when I get them working, which is what pisses me off. Should probably just get it all working and then leave it running in a corner.

yeah - it looks like my router's reset itself - it's not even returning pings any more.

# there's a few foibles that stop working from time to time.
but I've never found anything where i've gone and changed a config file or updated a rule, then restarted the process that's gone wrong.

Anything that has a gui on top of it though, i don't trust it.
