Within my Windows host system, I setup a kali Linux VM (using Oracle VirtualBox). I started the sshd on kali but I cannot putty from the host to kali. Note: I can ping the host from kali but not vice versa. I suspect it was an issue with the firewall on kali so I followed the steps laid out in
https://wiki.debian.org/iptables
Here is what the output of "iptables -L" returns:
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
ACCEPT tcp -- anywhereanywhere state NEW tcp dpt:ssh
ACCEPT icmp -- anywhereanywhere icmp echo-request
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Does it look like the firewall will allow port 22 (ssh) through? If so, any other suggestions?
