RE: Smoothwall and external access via ssh or Https.

In addition to setting remote access, you may also have to include a
spcific firewall rule to allow the access.
E.g. setting it up means that it is listening on 222 and 441, but the
firewall rules themselves do not grant access.

Worth taking a look at also.

Have been trying this, but no avail.

set it 
as an external service, the docs say the firewall dosent need a reboot,
but I 
gave it a kick just to be on the safe side.
