Interesting, but I have already been able to use Putty on a PC in my LAN. It worked with no change.

What I've found I needed to do to allow PuTTY and WinSCP clients to connect is to change the sshd config. These are the options I needed to change, keep in mind this has been on SuSE 9.x, your distribution may vary.
/etc/ssh/sshd_config: #PasswordAuthentication no #PermitEmptyPasswords no UsePAM yes
One other thing I found I needed to due on the firewall itself, that I just remembered about, it specify --syn in the ACCEPT rule for ssh.
