Here 's a puzzler 2006-10-25 - By Andrew Kelly
Back I wonder if anybody here has seen enough obscure, esoteric error conditions to be able to debug this oddity on first symptom. Rick maybe? Hope somebody has seen it before.
My desktop is running FC4, iptables set to ACCEPT across the board. I'm in a LAN behind a Windows Proxy (sound of retching).
I have several external servers that I maintain. They're running RH 7.3, RH 9.0, Debian Woody, Debian Sarge, and there's an oddball SuSE box. I connect to them all via ssh and have been doing so without problem for ages. At the moment I'm configuring 2 newly acquired hosts that have just been handed to me and having a bit of a baffle. They are running the current stable Debian (sarge) and doing everything I'd expect them too, UNLESS I try to reach them from my workstation. From any of my other servers, I get ping responses, can make ssh connections, the whole gamut. >From my workstation, pings return no response. An attempt to start an ssh session dies a timeout death. I get this far: OpenSSH_4.2p1, OpenSSL 0.9.7f 22 Mar 2005 debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config debug1: Applying options for * debug1: Connecting to chokma [84.214.xx.xxx] port 22. and no farther (the IP is correct, I've just added the x's because of local policy).
I can verify that it is not a proxy problem, because if I boot my workstation into XP (repeat previous sound) I can connect just fine with PuTTY. Also, I can connect perfectly from another linux box within my LAN.
So, it's only my workstation, only when I'm booted into FC4 and only when I try to contact the 2 newest servers. There are no firewalls in place on either end of the connection.
What is going on?
Andy
