I am wondering if somebody with sifybb in Mumbai/New Mumbaican check if port 22 is blocked or is it my figment of imagination?
Ok, sify guys sent a dude to my place, no not the cable dude, a sify dude. This is the first time since I have been using sify ( for GOD knows how many years.)
So I showed him that I couldn't login to any ssh server and such things when connected via sify but I could do it when connected using Tata Indicom Datacard. The dude told me chang my IP and then he used another login just to check. Apparently it didnot work. He asked me the "remote" IP which sort of made no sense to me. Then someone from Vile Parle called me and spoke to me and the dude even. They discussed something - the dude told the guy on phone what ssh was - "linux ka ek command" and such things. They tried Telnet-ing to some server but it failed on their XP box or so they told me.
And there were more calls to and fro between the dude and his colleagues/seniors. And then finally he said it seems its a problem at our end. They will try to solve it from the backend. I said ok. Soon I got another call from Vile Parle dude and he again asked me for remote IP. "Humare pass port no. to hai lekin remote IP nahi hai." I said fine and gave him some remote IP which I knew had a ssh server running. I wonder what they are going to do with that remote IP.
Right now, I am waiting for them to fix the problem ....
Cheers!
