SSHing into WSL2 of a remote Windows 10 from Windows 10 - ssh

I am planning on using VS Code to work out of WSL2 installed on a remote machine. Before doing that, I wanted to check the direct connectivity from a Windows 10. I followed the instructions given in this blog. Also, the remote Windows 10 is on a VPN.
When I use the command ssh <username>#<IP address>, I get the message
kex_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset
Is there anything I am missing to get the connection going?

Pycharm Remote Dev using SFTP with Yubi Key authentication

I have PyCharm Pro. I am trying to do remote development on a server. I have read the following Jetbrains tutorials:
Deploying Applications
Remote Development on Raspberry Pi
as well as the very helpful tutorial:
Remote debugging with pycharm the missing tutorial
While I seem to be able to set everything up, authentication fails when I try to connect to the remote server using the 'SFTP' protocol. I can make an SSH and SFTP connection from the CLI in a terminal so I know the ssh configuration settings are correct. However, in my case authentication requires ssh and having a Yubi key connected to my laptop. Does that make a difference?
Has anyone had a similar issue? If so, how did you resolve it?
On MacOS the challenge is where the IDE is getting it's ssh socket agent. To make this work in my case I have to launch the PyCharm Pro IDE from a terminal.
Go to '/Applications/PyCharm.app/Contents/MacOS' directory and launch with './pycharm'

Loadrunner not allowing to connect to a telnet host in RTE recording

I have used loadrunner 12.53 in my previous machine and had connected to a telnet host for recording without any issues.
But I recently downloaded 12.55 community edition in my new machine. When I give the host name and terminal type as before, it says "unable to connect to host".
I don't have any idea why it is showing this. The installation was done the same way as before. The telnet application also didn't change recently. Can you suggest what could be the problem?

Cannot open ssh connection between windows 10 and OS X with Bitvise ssh client

I need an sftp windows client and I just installed Bitvise. My windows 10 version runs on Parallels (version 10) on a Mac (OS X Yosemite version 10.10.5). As a test, I tried to open an ssh connection with the Bitvise client to the ssh server running on the Mac. I first went to the Mac, System Preferences -> Sharing and clicked on File Sharing and Remote Login (for all users, just to be sure). I can perfectly ping the Mac from Windows as well. Now when I try to open a connection from Windows to the Mac (Bitvise GUI or simply sftp from the command line), invariably I get this message.
The SSH2 session has terminated with error. Reason: Error class: LocalSshDisconn, code: ConnectionLost, message: FlowSshTransport: received EOF.
Does anybody knows what's going on? I couldn't find that error message anywhere. Just for your info I tried this from the command line
sftp mymacuser#my.mac.ip.address
And then again
ping my.mac.ip.address
works perfectly OK.
Thanks very much in advance.

Unable to start X11 through ssh using Putty

Currently trying to setup the mininet virtual machine. I did all according to the instructions. Before proceeding following is my setup details.
My host platform - Windows 8.1
My guest OS : Ubuntu 14.04, 32-bit with mininet. I downloaded the
ovf this one - mininet-2.2.0-141209-ubuntu-14.04-server-i386. Running on VirtualBox
I installed the required packages on the mininet-ubuntu-server (xserver-xorg-core,xserver-xorg,xorg,xorg openbox,ubuntu-desktop). One package fxlrg, I could not install as it was saying "unable to locate package"
Then I used the command "startx" on virtualbox console, it started the ubuntu desktop but very slow and with poping up 4 to 5 errors.
I have already setup the network for host-only adapter, I am able to ping from host machine to guest machine, I am able to ssh from host machine to guest machine using PuTTy. I am able to login with no problems.
But I don't know to see the x11 window from PuTTy. I have already enabled the X11 forwarding on PuTTy and I have already installed the Xming on windows. Please suggest how to debug and how to fix this. I have no idea how to proceed now.
You may need to enable X11 SSH Forwarding in the /etc/ssh/ssh_config file.

Get remote cmd from linux termnal

I need to run some scripts in a windows remote machine from a terminal linux, I've tried using telnet however in the windows machine it's unable and there isn't installed a ssh server. So I need other way to run the command remotely without a graphical interface.
I have the possibility for run the command from a windows machine, however I need to open a SSH Tunnel to see the remote machine, I've used psexec but it didn't work for me.
Do you have access to install software on the remote server?
Your SSH client will not be able to connect to the remote machine unless that machine is running an SSH server to respond to your client's connection request.
There are a number of possible options for SSH servers to run on Windows.
(Google for ssh server windows)
Because SSH gives an external user some access to/control over your server it is designed to be a secure tool. I would therefore recommend using an SSH server which is still actively maintained, and keep it up to date. Servers which are old and no longer supported are are likely to contain known security issues which may never be addressed, thereby leaving your server vulnerable.
There are a number of good free open-source solutions for this, so you shouldn't need to buy anything.
In the past I've worked with Windows machines running Cygwin, with the OpenSSH ssh server installed. Depending how much of the Cygwin system you choose to install, it can make the target Windows host rather like logging into another Linux box in terms of environment.
You can download the installer for Cygwin from http://www.cygwin.com/
