Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

:  I can currently ssh to the box through its eth1 address of 192.168.16.28 but I cannot ssh to it through its eth0 address of 216.162.203.209.  I can ping 216.162.203.209 but that is about it.

Here is the ip info:

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:30:48:92:5B:72
          inet addr:216.162.203.209

I assume the machine you're sshing from is on the same private network? (Hence the 192 address) What does the network look like for eth0? How is your machine connected to that network?

That last comment was from our resident network genius at work. :)

You owe him a drink at the mercury sometime as payment for his time. ;) (I tricked him)

Have you checked iptables or any other firewalling that may be happening?

Have you checked /etc/ssh/sshd_config or netstat to make sure it's listening on eth0?

I can’t find any line in ssh_config for BIND-
From the MAN page-
BindAddress
Use the specified address on the localmachine as the source address of the nnection. Only useful on systems with more than
one address. Note that this option does not work if
UsePrivilegedPort is set to ``yes''.

I couldn’t see that (using VI)
Only thing I could think of, everything is spot on.

I just thought of another thing. sshd uses tcp-wrappers.

Is there anything in hosts.deny to block access?
