[nslu2-linux] Re: Help! Fresh install of SlugOS/BE 5.3 - can't ssh in!

I tried telnet too :-(

I have a night babysitting tomorrow though, so I'll have a bit more time to have a go at it.

SSH, telnet, or whatever, it would just be on the standard port, wouldn't it?

I also had a horrible though that I'm being totally stupid...I'm going to check when I get home that I wasn't trying to ssh into my wireless access point, or a mobile phone, or something. I'm 99% certain I wasn't, but the doubt is growing in my mind!

Thanks,

Leon
