Thanks @Craig Barratt<mailto:cbarr...@users.sourceforge.net>.  Looks like it is 
a little bit of both.  When I turned the firewall completely off and ran your 
command, I got the below.  However, I was never able to get in as it is asking 
for a root password for Windows and when I enter my password, it rejects it.  
Strange, as when I run this command as backuppc “ssh akibu@akibu-desktop” and 
enter my Windows password, it allows me into the Windows computer.

Subject: Re: [BackupPC-users] Unexplained Error Code 255 - BackupPC

debug1: connect to address 10.10.10.10 port 22: Connection timed out
ssh: connect to host akibu-desktop port 22: Connection timed out

Ok, this confirms that ssh to your client does not work.  You need to figure 
out whether sshd is running on your client, or whether the windoze firewall is 
blocking port 22 etc.
