Probably not. Its usually [EMAIL PROTECTED] so I am guessing its something like [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Log into a terminal on the ssh server and hostname will give you the info. On my machine I get: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> hostname server.cybercolloids.office [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> hostname -s server [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> hostname -i 192.168.1.1 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> hostname -d cybercolloids.office so for me it would be [EMAIL PROTECTED] Also, from the remote machine, try ping server.cybercolloids.office. (adjust for your hostname) That should get a response. If it doesn't try ping 192.168.1.1 (adjust for your ip) to determine if its a lookup problem or something else. Does your ssh server run iptables? If so is it allowing ssh through? iptables -L from the server will give you a summary Check your ssh server setup - normally on ssh servers root access is blocked anyway. Try cat /etc/ssh/sshd_config | grep -i rootlog my machine gives #PermitRootLogin yes PermitRootLogin no which tells me someone as switched root logins off....no surprise Kevin.
