Hi,
first of all thanx for your answer...
I've tried to do what you said, I've seen, using Iptraf, that something
works, but not properly..
Without using -i identity it doesn't work at all, adding that it trys to
connect but the connaction isn't established.
I've tried exactly the code you write in that mail but I receive any
result.
The thing I need to do is connecting to a remote machine andh copy some
files from it...
I've even tried scp but the problem is the same, it cannot establish the
connection.
....and I really don't know why...
