CalahanHave ubuntu services behind firewall issue. Problem is I cannot connect to ubuntu via ssh trought my linksys firewall. I can connect from other LAN pcs, but not from outside. I have suspictions that this is more router configuration related matter than Ubuntu. I have set router to forward port 22 to my LAN ubuntu IP, cannot connect anyway, maybe have to do some additional configuartion on ubuntu? Would apriciate if anyone could help with any tips/10:45
Calahanideas how to solve this. Thanks in advance!10:45
Blazemore|WorkWhat's the IP?10:46
Blazemore|Work(public)?10:47
Calahanpublic routers IP is 81.198.50.710:47
Blazemore|WorkIn the firewall, it seems you have a rule to only allow port 22 traffic from specific IPs10:48
Blazemore|WorkCheck to make sure you allow port 22 traffic from anywhere (or from the specific IP/s you want to be able to SSH in from)10:48
CalahanI have dd-wrt on router and source net is blank which means no restriction from any IP. Im afraid i have misconfigured something else.10:51
Blazemore|WorkWell port 22 is filtered on the IP you gave me, which means it's open but I can't connect to it10:53
Blazemore|WorkWhy don't you ask in #dd-wrt10:53
Calahani will try it thanks for tip10:54

r4yWhen I try to download videos from here: http://cinemassacre.com/ all the newer videos a 2 GBs when they should be smaller. And sometimes when watching videos flash starts skipping unless I restart my computer.17:11
r4yThese are 2 different issues17:11
r4yAlso I like to download videos to my computer before watching them because I know that in the middle of the video if the connection gets bad I don't have to reload the video17:12
r4yEspecially for longer videos of coarse17:13

xworldhalllo guys23:41
stlsaintxworld: hello23:41
xworldstlsaint, hey I am new to IRC chat and also to ubuntu some guys said that chatting in IRC is dangerous  but I didnt find any thing wot is it means23:43
epikvisionxworld, there isn't anything dangerous about chatting in IRC23:44
epikvisionif you know *where* to chat, of course.23:44
xworldepikvision,  so why they say u need to hide u r IP and all23:46
epikvisionthat's a good practice.23:46
epikvisionJoseeAntonioR helped me out there once23:46
stlsaintxworld: they mean that some malicious people *might* attempt to attack your ip address but none of that happens within these channels23:47
epikvision^that's right.23:47
stlsaintxworld: but no chatting is not dangerous really23:47
xworldstlsaint, ok thanks23:48
xworldstlsaint, so why the need of hiding all info23:49
xworld?23:50
xworldstlsaint, this channel will no effect any malicious  code like that ?23:51
Strategistxworld: Basically your hostname can be linked back to your ip address, if a expereinced hacker gets your ip, they can do malicious stuff with it.  Therefore, it's good practice to hide your info from public view.23:51
xworldStrategist, as u said it is a good practice  so I want to hide my info can u tell me to how to do that or guide23:52
stlsaintxworld: you have to request one on freenode channel23:53
stlsainti forget which one specifically23:53
Strategiststlsaint: Hostserver?23:53
StrategistHostserv*23:53
stlsaintno #freenode23:54
xworldso I need to do those command for hiding my ip23:54
xworldstlsaint, so #freenode is the hostserver for all other channel ?23:56
xworldStrategist,  so #freenode is the hostserver for all other channel ?23:57
xworldhey guys I have lot of questions here !!23:58
xworldplease help me out23:58
Strategistxworld: #freenode is just a channel where you can join to request from staff.23:58
StrategistHostserv is a service which runs on irc, that does the hiding.23:58
xworldok23:59
StrategistYou basically join #freenode and ask the staff if you can get a custom hostname.  If they say yes, then they will allow you to create one, and it will be used to hide your info.23:59
