    How to open SSH to WAN using command line?

    It's not better than a VPN, it's worse. But I can't use a VPN client on my iPhone for unrelated reasons, so it's more convenient for me. It's restricted to a specific IP address by iptables (the address of the requesting client). It's not open to the WAN in any real sense. Packets are still...
