I can get to the server from workstation using ssh. I just can't do it 
in the other direction. On server, I can ping workstation but:
$ telnet workstation  22
Trying 192.168.1.20...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out

Whereas the other way, I get a protocol mismatch error.
