Hello and welcome to LinuxQuestions,

What distribution and version are you running? Did you install the SSH server (openssh-server) and if so, is it started? Did you configure IPTABLES and forgot to allow localhost or port 22? Those are only a few options. You need to be more descriptive when communicating about a problem. The more information you provide the better we can help.

Kind regards,

Eric

paste the following output of the following commands:

1. telnet localhost 22

2. ls -l /etc/init.d | grep -i ssh

3. iptables -nL

4. cat /etc/issue or cat /etc/debian-release

5. uname -a
