Remote login to a computer on a router network, How?

[ooagentbender]

I have a simple cable connection at my appartment here and I use a router to produce a wireless signal for my girlfriend and I to use. How do I go about logging into my computer from a remote location with ssh, basically what would the command look like.

thanks

PS I know the IP of the computer on the network and I know the ip of the router so where do I go from there?

You'll need a ssh server running on your machine. You'll also need to set your router to forward port 22 (ssh) to your machine. Once those are set up you should just need to use the IP of your router as the server you login to and the router should forward it on to your machine on your local network.

The command would bessh <user>@<IPaddress> or it may be easier to use PuTTY if the machine you are logging on from is running Windows.
