hi,
i'm assuming ssh server is running under linux...
it seems you don't have access to this host from IP you are trying to
log on. if you have local root access try to tune files /etc/hosts.allow
and /etc/hosts.deny
another possibility is:
machine you are trying to ssh from doesn't have reverse DNS record,
you must added it manually into /etc/hosts
if you check /var/log/auth.log you will see there something like this:
Apr 12 09:07:39 sasha sshd[2656]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 14:
host name/name mismatch: hosta != hosta.smwh.xx
Apr 12 09:07:39 hosta sshd[2656]: refused connect from 192.168.1.239
