Sorry if this has already been answered. I scanned through the emails and didn't see a response.<br><br>Is sshd (the secure shell server daemon) running on the server you are trying to connect to?<br><br>To check you can run the command:
<br><br>ps -A | grep sshd<br><br>You should get an output similar to this:<br><br>myuser@mymachine ~ $ ps -A | grep sshd<br> 6869 ? 00:00:00 sshd<br>24780 ? 00:00:00 sshd<br>24786 ? 00:00:00 sshd<br>myuser@mymachine
~ $ <br><br>If you do please try to connect to the server using SSH on your server's LAN.<br><br>If you can do that then we know it's a problem with the external connection (port forwarding, IP address...)<br><br>If you can't then we know it's an installation/configuration problem.

<div>Sorry to keep beating this thread to death but I am still have trouble.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have port 19-23 forwarded on my router. I went to dyndns and set up a dns. I can ping the ip remotely (from work) but when I try to do a TELNET session I get a connect failed message. I also have putty installed on my win box at work and when I try ssh or telnet from the win box I get Unable to open connection: connect(); unknown error.

<br>or something else? For just a terminal window, i'd recommend <br>downloading PuTTY (Google for "putty" and it should be in the first 2 <br>hits) and using it to SSH to your Linux box. You'll need to make sure
<br>your Linux box has a routable IP, or forward the SSH port (TCP/22) from <br>a routable IP to the Linux box.<br><br>X is a bit more complicated; i've never needed to go from MS Windows to <br>X Windows. There are projects such as Cygwin that will let you set up
<br>an X server on Windows and then from there you'd be able to connect to <br>the Linux box and run applications. A possibly easier solution would be <br>to run VNC on the Linux box and then connect from Windows with a VNC
<br>viewer. I've done that before, though with Linux or OS X as the client <br></span></div><div>rather than Windows. It gives you a full deskto

<br>1024x768 -depth 8" and on the client "vncviewer -via <br>localhost:1". When done you can stop the server with "vncserver <br>-kill :1" on the server. I would think that using Windows as the client
<br>would be similar, though the client command may differ slightly.<br><br>On Tuesday 08 August 2006 08:01, David Stout wrote:<br>>I would like to access my Linux box from work. At home I am running<br>> SuSe 10.1 with a linksys router. At work I am on Win XP Pro. What is
