I have added an entry as "virtual server", in my router settings.
This is what I added :
Enable (x)
Name : ssh
IP Address : 192.168.1.17 (the IP of my homeserver on the local lan)
Protocol : TCP
Private port : 22
Public port : 5317
Inbound filter : allow all
Schedule : Always.

But could the problem come from the settings I added to the
/etc/ssh/sshd_config file with :
# What ports, IPs and protocols we listen for - Default is 22
Port 5317

Should I change it to 22 in my sshd_config file, as I "translate" the
public port 5317 to a private port 22 on my router settings?
