Putty problems - cannot connect with server
 

Hello,

I just installed a RedHat8 server
Textmode... no graphical interface

now I want to connect to the server with putty (in windows)
I get the following error message:

Putty fatal error:
Network error: connection reset by peer

how can I solve this?

SSH is started in linux
PORT 22 is OPEN

any ideas?

thanks!

Hi, and welcome to LQ!

Any firewalling in place, routing in working order,
what do /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny look
like on the deadrat box?


Cheers,
