Hi, I am trying to ssh to a Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS virtual machine - temporary host is an XP box running VMWare Server 2.02. Previously when hosted on an ubuntu box I could ssh to it, whether this move has something to do with this "breakage" or not I'm unsure.
The VM appears to function normally in other ways. I can ping it from the network by name or IP address, I can ping from it by name or IP address. I can ssh from this box to another on the network. I believe the daemon is running and listening on port 22: ro...@neptune:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart * Restarting OpenBSD Secure Shell server sshd [ OK ] ro...@neptune:~$ sudo netstat -anltp | grep sshd tcp6 0 0 :::22 :::* LISTEN 6464/sshd Nothing relevant in iptables: ro...@neptune:~$ sudo iptables -L Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Nothing but commented lines in /etc/hosts.allow and hosts.deny. Error is always this: ro...@mercury:~$ ssh neptune ssh: connect to host neptune port 22: Connection timed out (same with ssh ro...@neptune or ssh ip-address) This also: ro...@mercury:~$ telnet neptune 22 Trying 10.2.1.202... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out Here endeth my efforts. Can anyone suggest where to from here?
