Re: SSH/Bash error
No, I understand you perfectly. The fact that you can ssh to other
machines is inconsequential in your debugging. You want to make sure
that things are set up properly to allow you to ssh *into* your machine.
Regardless, there's no magic pill here. You need to debug this and the
steps I suggested will help you do that. It's worth the effort considering
the alternative.
