I was wrong. I read hosts_access(5). The format should be

daemon_list : client_list [ : shell_command ]

and "daemon_list is a list of one or more daemon process names (argv[0]
values) or wildcards".

So it should read

sshd:ALL

But since

that wouldn't matter.

Can you reach _any_ port on your machine from the outside? "telnet
machine port" to test. How about going out? My guess is maybe NAT isn't
working correctly.

                Logic is a systematic method of coming to
                  the wrong conclusion with confidence.
