External bubba2 ssh access trough fritzbox problem

Hello,

I experience problems accessing my bubba with ssh from the internet trough my fritzbox.

My setup is following :

ADSL <-> Fritzbox <-> Bubba <-> internal nw

Port 22 forwarding to the Bubba is switched on in the fritzbox, and in the bubba2 config page I switched on the external wan ssh access, and also in the firewall settings, and the user is allowed to ssh.

But when I try to ssh with following command :

ssh user1@name.bubbaserver.com,
i get
user1@name.bubbaserver.com's password:
So I am reaching my bubba2, but if I enter the password of the user, after 3 "Permission denied, please try again." replies, the login is stopped with :
"Permission denied (publickey,password)." ( I am sure it is the correct user password, and are not using public key exchange )

Am I missing something, or have to do some special configuration for this setup ???

Am greatefull for help :D

Thanks, Ton

Easyfins is simple an http redirect service, and not a pure DNS service, so ssh to abouce address isn't possible.

Thanks for your quick response :D conferming my suspicious, i was just looking in this direction ...
So as I untherstood, I should use e.g. DynDNS instead of easyfind from my fritzbox, so the dns reverse lookup can be done and it should work.

Is there an ssh option ( restricting the dns lookup ) to make it work with easyfind too ?

Easyfind is a service that we have added since many users are sitting at work or at other places wanting to reach their Bubba, but not really knowing how or what a domain is, much less a DNS.

Easyfind is, as Carl said, a http redirect which means that it will only function on the standard ports for http and https (port 80 and 443).

If you need your name to function for ssh as well, you will, as you said, have support from a true DNS such as DynDNS.
