Hi, This is a strange issue: We have an sftp server. Users can ssh to it from internal LAN without any issue, but they can not ssh to it externally via firewall. Here is what I got:

pdisk
PDISK(8) BSD System Manager's Manual PDISK(8)
NAME
pdisk -- Apple partition table editor
SYNOPSIS
pdisk [-h | --help] [-v | --version] [-l | --list] [[name ...]]
pdisk [r | -readonly] device ...
DESCRIPTION
pdisk is a menu driven program which partitions disks using the standard Apple disk partitioning scheme described in "Inside Macintosh:
Devices". It does not support the intel/dos partitioning scheme supported by fdisk.
device is of the following form:
/dev/disk0s
/dev/disk0s1
etc.
OPTIONS
-v | --version
Prints version number of the pdisk program.
-h | --help
Prints a rather lame set of help messages for the pdisk program.
-l | --list
If no names are present then lists the partition tables for /dev/disk0s, /dev/disk0s1, /dev/disk0s2, and so on. Otherwise, lists
the partition tables for the specified names.
-r | --readonly
Prevents pdisk from writing to the device.
Editing Partition Tables
An argument which is simply the name of a device indicates that pdisk should edit the partition table of that device.
The current top level editing commands are:
h command help
p print the partition table
P (print ordered by base address)
i initialize partition map
s change size of partition map
c create new partition
C (create with type also specified)
d delete a partition
r reorder partition entry in map
w write the partition table
q quit without saving changes
Commands which take arguments prompt for each argument in turn. You can also type any number of the arguments separated by spaces and those
prompts will be skipped. The only exception to typeahead are the confirmation prompts on the i and w commands. The idea being that if we
expect you to confirm the decision we shouldn't undermine that by allowing you to be precipitate about it.
Partitions are always specified by their number, which the index of the partition entry in the partition map. Most of the commands will
change the index numbers of all partitions after the affected partition. You are advised to print the table as frequently as necessary.
Creating more than fifteen partitions is not advised. There is currently a bug in the some (all?) of the kernels which causes access to the
whole disk fail if more than fifteen partitions are in the map.
The c (create new partition) command is the only one with complicated arguments. The first argument is the base address (in blocks) of the
partition. Besides a raw number, you can also specify a partition number followed by the letter 'p' to indicate that the first block of the
new partition should be the same as the first block of that existing free space partition. The second argument is the length of the parti-
tion in blocks. This can be a raw number or can be a partition number followed by the letter 'p' to use the size of that partition or can be
a number followed by 'k', 'm', or 'g' to indicate the size in kilobytes, megabytes, or gigabytes respectively. (These are powers of 1024, of
course, not powers of 1000.) The last argument is the name of the partition. This can be a single word without quotes, or a string sur-
rounded by single or double quotes.
The C command is identical to the c command, with the addition of a partition type argument after the other arguments.
The r (reorder) command allows the index number of partitions to be changed. The index numbers are constrained to be a contiguous sequence.
The i (initialize) command prompts for the size of the device. This was done to get around a bug in the kernel where it reports the wrong
size for the device.
The w (write) command does write the partition map out.
BUGS
pdisk should be able to create HFS partitions that work.
Even more help should be available during user input.
