Presumably the console output you included was done on the machine itself, which has an otherwise fully working network connection?I don't know how you access the machine (via IP or DNS hostname) but have you checked to see if the machine has simply changed it's IP address and you're not connecting to the "old" address?Finally can you connect locally to sshd and apache from the machine itself? PS:I decided to dist-upgrade my main workstation to 20.10 in the middle of a lengthy support call the other day whilst I was trying to remote control a client's systems. Needless to say it was a mistake so don't worry, you're not the only one with bad timing... What can I say, the upgrade was too tempting ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yep, that's it!My IP address had obviously changed during my upgrade. I used the new IP address and got straight back in - now just to wait for the Domain's DNS servers to catch up - many thanks indeed!
