Not responding after trying to connect using ssh

barakolshe · 07-08-2017, 12:15 PM

Hello, I am trying to log into the ssh host of overthewire (is is a net challenge).
I type in this command in order to connect:
ssh bandit0@bandit.labs.overthewire.org -p 2220
(-p 2220 because the site is requesting to log into port 2220)

and there is just no response, the command doesn't end, and the terminal is pending.
If anyone can help me I would very much appreciate it, the link to the website is here:

You can try using more verbose diagnostics when trying to connect. It may tell you more about what is (or isn't) happening.

Code:

ssh -p 2220 bandit0@example.com
ssh -v -p 2220 bandit0@example.com
ssh -vv -p 2220 bandit0@example.com
ssh -vvv -p 2220 bandit0@example.com

Can you even ping the remote machine?

Code:

ping -c 3 -w 1 example.com
