SSH Problem

[Dark Ninja]

Greetings!

I have been using OpenSSH-Server for quite awhile in order that I may be able to connect to my computer from any other computer. I have also been using IPTables as my firewall and GuardDog to configure it.

I haven't made any major changes in my system (at least as far as I know) and all of a sudden, I had this problem:

Apparently, if I reboot my system, and then try to connect to SSH from another computer, my computer does not allow an SSH connection on my computer. However, if I reaload the firewall settings (via GuardDog) I am then allowed to connect, and it works find until the next time I reboot.

Does anybody know why this may be happening? It's not a crippling thing to my system - just a pain.

Hmm. Is the 'guarddog' IPTABLES script starting properly at boot? Is there maybe another IPTABLES entry in another startup script that loads up before/after the 'guarddog' script and changes the settings you want??
