Hi,
I am fairly new to MikroTik and I ran into a problem. I have set up a ssh connection on a local network so that I can use VNC to control a local machine remotely. It worked great. However when I try to connect to the machine from a different location it doesn’t work.
First I realized that when I use putty to connect to the DMZ IP that MIkroTik manages, I actually log directly into the MikroTik. So I changed the ssh port for the MikroTik to 65 and now it won’t connect even to the router (duh…). This means that the ssh port 22 is not forwarded to the server. Somehow I believe I did not forward the port correctly this are the forward settings:
In Firewall > NAT
Action | chain | Dst. Address | Protocol | Dst. Port | In. Interface
dst-nat | dstnat | 89.34.xxx.xxx | 6(tcp) | 22 | internal
The rest is empty.
So what am I doing wrong?
I appreciate your help.
Paul
