Cannot see from outside world to my linode?
Hey all. I have a port forward ssh set up and if I log into my linnode consiole and do a wget localhost or wget 0.0.0.0 it hits my webserver at the other end of my tunnel. But if I try it from the outside world using my public IP for that box or in the console using that IP I get nothing. Its only been up for an hour or so. What am i missing?

You'll need to provide more details.
"that box" is this the webserver or the box at the other end of the tunnel?
"my tunnel"
There are many different tunnel softwares and even more ways to set them up.
I'll assume you mean the webserver is not directly accessible from its own public ip? In which case the tunnel software at the webserver box has likely made routes for the other box at the other end of the tunnel and not the rest of the internet.
If the webserver is meant to be publicly accessed from the box at the other end of the tunnel, you'll likely need to do NAT at the box so users can access the webserver box through it.
