I can ping the linux machine ip address, or nslookup the linux machine from cygwin. I can also do the reverse with the linux machine to windows. When I try ~# ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] or ~# ssh linux-ip-address it hangs for 15-20 seconds, then gives me the following error: ssh: connect to host xxx.xxx.x.xx port 22: Connection timed out
