DSL Embedded :: sshd problems

im using dsl embedded, and ive tried starting an sshd. It runs good, i can ssh locally.

when i try using windows and putty to ssh to locahost i get connection refused because it isnt actually binding it to my real ip address.

Im thinking it could be because i havent properly configured eth0, but im not sure.

so if anyone has any experiance please reply because im a total noob at linux.
