Hmmm, strange that ssh fails then. What does the output of the command
tell you? There should be a line like this:
Code:
4884 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/sbin/sshd
The 4 digit number (4884) will be different on your machine, but the last entry (/usr/sbin/shh) should be present.
One more thing though: did you install a ssh server in the first place? Do a
Code:
aptitude install ssh
to be sure.
