Dumb question 1: Did you reload iptables after making the changes?
Dumb question 2: Is sshd running on the machine you are trying to
connect to?
Dumb question 3: Above one sees... inet addr:120.165.xx.xxx
And then one sees... ssh: connect to host 120.166.xx.xxx
Does anyone see a difference between 165 and 166?
