SSH timing out/not connecting
Here's a weird problem.
I'm setting up a server machine with Debian 3.0r1 in a friend's dorm room. Setup went well except for some strange reason SSH is really twtchy. Some times I'm able to connect and sometimes I'm not. when I do connect, i will time out at various times, longest i stayed connected was 3 minutes i think. Recently however I have not been ablet o connect at all. here's what i get now when i try to connect: $ ssh 10.69.13.86 -v OpenSSH_3.5p1, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090700f debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh_config debug1: Rhosts Authentication disabled, originating port will not be trusted. debug1: ssh_connect: needpriv 0 debug1: Connecting to 10.69.13.86 [10.69.13.86] port 22. debug1: Connection established. debug1: identity file /.ssh/identity type -1 debug1: identity file /.ssh/id_rsa type -1 debug1: identity file /.ssh/id_dsa type -1 ssh_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by peer debug1: Calling cleanup 0x41b1b0(0x0) Any ideas? |
Looks like you have a connection problem. Doesn't look like SSH itself is the problem ... it's your network connection in general. What happens if you use ping -c 1000 <friend's pc ip>.
How about packet lost there ? |
"-c" on cygwin isn't reconized... not sure if that was a typo. a regular ping resultsin this:
$ ping 10.69.13.86 Pinging 10.69.13.86 with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 10.69.13.86: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=255 Reply from 10.69.13.86: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 10.69.13.86: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 10.69.13.86: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Ping statistics for 10.69.13.86: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms |
