Any firewall?
Do you use the correct IP?
Error messages?
Any pointers in the logfiles?
What is the output from

Code:

ssh -vvv <IP>

Kind regards

Dear Repo,

Thanks your reply,

I hope it is not firewall problem, Because It was connected couple of days before.Selinux was being disabled then i changed to permissive.After I can't able to connect,but immediately i disabled selinux...I am connecting through putty,even telnet also I can't able to connect,but i can able to ping that ip on all windows system.while I tried to connect through telnet i got an error which mentioned below

"Connecting To 192.168.0.189...Could not open connection to the host, on port 23:
Connect failed"

Make sure the firewall is disabled.

Code:

iptables -L

Will give you some info.
Try to connect on the server itself

Code:

ssh 127.0.0.1

Did you looked in the log files for any pointers?

Kind regards

Glad it works, I would however suggest to configure the firewall so the connection works.

Kind regards
