to be honest i have 2 problems to solve:
im creating an ftp server that has ubuntu intrepid on it. my laptop is FreeBSD 7.1 i can only connect locally when im on my wireless network. i installed an ssh client to my cellphone. it wont connect to the server. the phone is an samsung blackjack with windows mobile. i have a windows xp partition of the bsd computer and i have a centos computer for my local server. i booted back into windows and tested openssh and was able to connect ONLY WHEN I WAS ON WIFI. when turned off the card and connected the phone as modem i am unable to acess the server.
the ubuntu server is however connected to the wifi network and able to acess the web. so my two questions are
1) how do i make it so i can ssh to this server from my school?
2) in order to ssh from school i need to be able to tether my samsung blackjack to my BSD laptop since thats what i normally use so i can get internet otherwise ill have buy a usb modem and they not cheap.
i also had edited my hosts file in /etc/hosts in ubuntu to get the server running under my boss suggestion i thing may have been uneeded. could that be the problem?
