Hi Wilmar, They didn't provide any information on why this would be required? I have to say that it doesn't make any sense at all! Thanks!

There it goes: according to Microsoft what I needed to do was to create a route relationship between the internal SSH server and the External Network even if I already have a NAT relationship between the DMZ, where the internal SSH server is located, and the External Network. As weird as it seems (at least it is weird for me), it works. And that was all I needed to do. It would be nice to hear an explanation of someone who actually understand how it manages to work that way. Thanks a lot to all those who helped me to find out an answer to this problem. Regards Wilmar Perez
