[mosh-users] desperately trying to get mosh working

Hi guys!

To have a slighly better experience working from train I try to setup mosh
as my ssh replacement.

Target side is a root server with debian, on train some other linux box
or Termux on android.

For the moment I have my laptop here and try to connect to the virtual server.

mosh is installed on both sides, 1.3.2.

The firewall is open, I can communicate with nc over udp and port 60001.
I can connect manually: start mosh-server by hand, copy key, start client locally.

But to no avail will mosh work on its own!

I always get "mosh: Nothing received from server on UDP port 60001. [To quit: Ctrl-^ .]  "

after giving my ssh password.

I tried the logind/sshd configuration suggestions on some issues with the
same error message. But nothing worked so far.

I tried from different networks, always the same.

Any suggestions very welcome! What can I try?

Regards
Detlef
