Sshd is for incoming connections. You need to enable it on IPCop (using
web interface is easiest). I also suggest using ssh keys instead of
password *if* you want increased security. Paranoia level is the
determining factor.

You should not need to fron the trace (dig or nslookup from the IPCop
box.

I've not used it for awhile, but I think you need to look at the man
page. ISTR that user at host is somewhere in there. Unsure though.
