heaven forbid telnet is running can you telnet to the remote? heaven forbid ftp is running can you ftp to the server?
Have you checked /etc/hosts.allow for ssh? if you can go ssh <IP> -l logname or ssh <ip> and it hangs it sounds like a firewall/hosts.allow issue that is stopping you. I assume that sshd is active and listening on the default port... /etc/ssh/sshd_config sample: Port 22 Protocol 2 ListenAddress 10.10.10.5 #ListenAddress :: /etc/hosts.allow sshd: 10.10.10.
