This problem is resolved!!! Hooray.  The romote firewall had the ssh set
to block.

The block was removed, and ssh is up and working fine!

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.
