ssh not connecting to a remote machine.
Hi again you guys......
I have this little problem that I almost feel ashamed to bother you guys with. I have a Debian Woody and a Mandrake 10 machines and I want to copy some archives from one machine to another - the thing is that one of these cannot copy (scp) or connect (ssh) to the other, the error I get is: "port 22: connection refused" I deleted the ip address that existed in the file '.ssh/known_hosts' - plus I added the correct ip address from the remote machine to the '/etc/hosts_allow' file. What am I missing? Thanks |
hi
if u cold portscan the other machine to find out whether the port 22 was open by nmap <ipaddress> or see if any firewall is running regards |
Thanks for the hint.
Just tell me, if that is the case, how can I open the port - what command do I use? Or program? Thank you again"! |
hi there
first see if ssh is runnig on that machine by service ssh startus or service sshd status if it is running ,then se what firewall u r using and u need to edit ur firewall scrippt for that regards |
another check to be made
Also check your sshd_config, if you reconfigged the sshd server to listen to port 110 for example it won't listen to port 22
it should be located in /etc/sshd/sshd_config grtZ |
Sorry guys - I really feel a fool for not considering this sooner - but the problem was that i did not have the ssh program installed.
But thank you all for your time in helping a friend. Thanks again"! |
