Depends on the security level you've assigned on the server. If it's 'Standard' then it's just: ssh -u <username> <ip of server> assuming you have a user account on the server, of course. If you have the security level set higher, you may need to configure the server to accept connections from specified hosts. Edit /etc/hosts.allow with the IP of the box you want to connect from, and edit /etc/hosts.deny, which may have an "all" setting in place. One thing, please don't reply to existing posts and change the subject, start a new thread instead.
