Ok, I have a querky setup but for several reasons. I have everything working except SSH via internet. The host behind my pix can access the internet and i can access them via port forwarding. Now my crazy setup, not the best but its for several reasons. I have my pix behind my Linksys router. I'm double Nat'ing, which is never a good thing. But what is confusing me is this. i have the pix exposed as the DMZ on my linksys but I still can't SSH to the pix.

I'm thinking, do I need to create a static or no nat, for the outside interface of my pix and point it to the real IP of my network?

Any ideas?

Thanks.
 
You just need to enable ssh on the pix with the allowed networks and set the telnet password. Nothing else needed.

Yes, thats what i thought too. I can reach if from the internal networks but when I am remote I am unable to reach it via the internet.
 
Do you have
ssh 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 outside

If so, it is a port forwarding issue with your other firewall.

I am assuming you created a key for ssh right?
I think you need a domain name configured before you can generate the key.

domain-name test.com
crypto key generate rsa modulus 2048
ssh 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 outside

(Troubleshooting)
logging buffered debugging
sh run log | i 22







 
I think the first step, stormproof, is to zeroize the keys, though they do not exist...you must put that command in. I think it it
crypto key zeroize ...uh...I forget...
