1) Are you logging in as "root"? this is disabled by default in Debian systems for security reasons (look in /etc/ssh/sshd_config) 2) Check /var/log/auth.log to see what the Debian box thinks is going on. 3) Is sshd running on the Debian box? check the output of "netstat -tl" (t = tcp; l = listening), it should show in part: [EMAIL PROTECTED] jon]$ netstat -tl Active Internet connections (only servers) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State tcp 0 0 *:ssh *:* LISTEN -Jon
