sshd doesn`t work

hello!

I have a little problem about sshd, but i can`t set it up. i have used slackwafre linux 10.0. And ssh was working with no problem, but now when i try to connect i have this message:

Code:

ticko@tickobox:~$ ssh ticko.heapsoft.com

ssh: connect to host ticko.heapsoft.com port 22: Connection refused

Now what is wrong? how to delete this sshd and install it again? i can`t find some similiar topic about sshd. :confused:

Are you hosting the server yourself?
Is it behind a firewall?
Can you access any other services on the server?
When you say that ssh was working w/ no problem do you mean that you could ssh into localhost?

Code:

cat /etc/ssh/sshd_config

and post results plz

here is it.

Code:

root@tickobox:/home/ticko# cat /etc/ssh/sshd_config

so can now anybody tell me what is wrong.

I'm having the same problem but I can't even connect on the local machine that sshd is running on.
