I have 4 PC's on my lovely little network, SSH works just dandy from and to 2 of them, to one of them, and the other is Win95. The problem i have is SSHing to the 1 pc that is not letting SSH inbound.
I am assuming that, 'the 1 PC' is a linux? ;) I guese the first step is to find out if the sshd daemon is running (as a stand alone process) at a shell prompt type: ps -e | more If it is not running then that is obviously a problem, to start sshd daemon type: /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd start or /etc/rc.d/init.d/ssh start or service sshd start or service ssh start or (hopefully one should work) now re-type: ps -e | more you should now see the sshd running as a background process (daemon). If sshd daemon is already running it could be a software fire wall problem, the easyest way to see if this is your problem is to disable it (if it is runnning). To do this type: setup If you have 'setup' as part of your distribution then tab to firewall and then select the 'No firewall' option. I you find that this is the solution to your problem and you need/want a firewall you can customise it (using the 'setup' tool) to let through ssh requests (port 22). It could also be inetd problem, e.g. the inet daemon has already binded to port 22 thus not letting your stand alone sshd daemon to bind to it. Another thing you could try is to try to connect locally i.e. go on to the pc with the problem and type ssh localhost or ssh 127.0.0.1 (I think) what distrobution are you using?
