rlbewick Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 I an trying to setup an SSH server with Mandrake Linux 9.2 download edition. I have used WebMin to set it up but am unable to connect to it from a windows box using an SSH client. The SSHD server loads at startup as configured in the services (starts on boot). I am sure you may need more information, ask away! Any and all greatly appreciated :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 Right port? Is the port open and forwared back from the router/firewall? Can you ssh locally? As in ssh 127.0.0.1 or ssh 127.0.0.1 -p port number? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 make sure that the IP of the machines you want to be able to SSH from are in /etc/hosts.allow. or, to allow all just put: ALL: ALL: ALLOW in /etc/hosts.allow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
