I'm pulling my hair out over this and can't find a solution anywhere.
After a reboot I started getting "Connection refused" through port 22000 which was the one I had configured and SSH was still listening to(I double checked). I'm connecting from a PC on the same LAN.
I could connect to port 22 suddenly after that but there I got "Access denied" after entering my password. After troubleshooting this I got tired and reinstalled openssh, with that I got a clean config and everything including the firewall and selinux is now configured to use port 22 with these commands:
sudo semanage port -a -t ssh_port_t -p tcp 22
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-port=22/tcp
sudo firewall-cmd --reload
Still access denied even though it's the correct password, I know since I can use the exact same directly on the server.
I have tried:
Putting "PermitRootLogin yes" in the sshd_config and login with root but that is also denied, same with a new test account I made. I removed "AllowUsers [username]" from the config before this.
Restarted the SSH service and rebooted as well several times.
The solution here to no avail: Centos 7 Remote SSH access denied
Setting selinux to "Permissive"
Disabling the firewall
Changing password to one without special characters
Triple checking that the SSH service is running
Neither "/var/log/secure" nor "/var/log/messages" log anything regarding my attempts to login.
I must have missed something, anyone have any ideas what?
use: ssh -vvv username#host to check the issue.
Try creating a pem file and see if it works.
I solved it and I really don't want to post the answer since it was embarrassingly easy, but I refuse to leave the question unsolved for the poor souls with similar problems.
I rebooted my PC.... facedesk

My iMac' OS was upgraded last night, to OS X El Capitan(version 10.11).
I use XAMPP 5.5.28. MySQL and ProFTPD are working, but the Apache Web Server doesn't work after the upgrade.
Even though the application log says..
Starting Apache Web Server...
/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apache2/scripts/ctl.sh : httpd started
Then tried to start it on Terminal
$ sudo /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/httpd
(48)Address already in use: AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80
(48)Address already in use: AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
I checked whether any other app uses the same port by
$ netstat -anp tcp | grep :80
And nothing uses it.
Anyway, to avoid the error, I changed the port 80 to 8888 by
$ vi /Applications/XAMPP/etc/httpd.conf
Then tried to start the web server on Terminal again, and it worked.
Now wondering
Which process uses port 80?
How can I start the web server via Application Manager of XAMPP?
Any help is appreciated.
I had the same problem
And I thought this is a dead end for El Capitan
BUT i got it working now:
The problem was apache was already running, no idea how.
So just go to terminal and type (Login as root user)
sudo su -
cd /etc/apache2/
apachectl stop
exit
Then go to XAMPP and try to start apache from there.
If this doesn't work, restart your system, then go to terminal:
sudo su -
cd /etc/apache2/
apachectl start
apachectl stop
exit
Then go to XAMPP and try to start apache from there.

I spent to much time trying to do something which in plain words looks simple
I am at home, without firewall and all open ports. I need to ssh to the router at work where I have access to ssh port 22. My personal machine is on that subnet having internal ip address. So, what I need to do is to ssh from one machine to the second and from the second to the third. On the third I need to execute another ssh which tunnels some ports to my home machine. All that in bash script from my home. I have tried many solutions on the internet but nothing works.
The whole ideal is to get to my PC at work and run ssh tunnel for port 22 which will allow me to sshfs my work PC.
I could do it manually, by sshing to the router, that form the router to the work pc and then execute the ssh tunnel. I need a one-click solution.
Thanks in advance!
Have you tried just stacking the ssh commands like ssh -t localhost ssh localhost be sure to add the -t option for each hop except the last one ssh -t localhost ssh -t localhost ssh localhost
Maybe try VNC? With the right setup/port forwarding, you wouldn't have to jump from 1 PC to the next.

I am trying to connect to remote server via ssh but getting connection timeout.
I ran the following command
ssh testkamer#test.dommainname.com
and getting following result
ssh: connect to host testkamer#test.dommainname.com port 22: Connection timed out
but if try to connect on another remote server then I can login successfully.
So I think there is no problem in ssh and other person try to login with same login and password he can successfully login to server.
Please help me
Thanks.
Here are a couple of things that could be preventing you from connecting to your Linode instance:
DNS problem: if the computer that you're using to connect to your
remote server isn't resolving test.kameronderdehamer.nl properly
then you won't be able to reach your host. Try to connect using the
public IP address assigned to your Linode and see if it works (e.g.
ssh user#123.123.123.123). If you can connect using the public IP
but not using the hostname that would confirm that you're having
some problem with domain name resolution.
Network issues: there
might be some network issues preventing you from establishing a
connection to your server. For example, there may be a misconfigured
router in the path between you and your host, or you may be
experiencing packet loss. While this is not frequent, it has
happenned to me several times with Linode and can be very annoying.
It could be a good idea to check this just in case. You can have a look
at Diagnosing network issues with MTR (from the Linode
library).
That error message means the server to which you are connecting does not reply to SSH connection attempts on port 22. There are three possible reasons for that:
You're not running an SSH server on the machine. You'll need to install it to be able to ssh to it.
You are running an SSH server on that machine, but on a different port. You need to figure out on which port it is running; say it's on port 1234, you then run ssh -p 1234 hostname.
You are running an SSH server on that machine, and it does use the port on which you are trying to connect, but the machine has a firewall that does not allow you to connect to it. You'll need to figure out how to change the firewall, or maybe you need to ssh from a different host to be allowed in.
EDIT: as (correctly) pointed out in the comments, the third is certainly the case; the other two would result in the server sending a TCP "reset" package back upon the client's connection attempt, resulting in a "connection refused" error message, rather than the timeout you're getting. The other two might also be the case, but you need to fix the third first before you can move on.
I got this error and found that I don't have my SSH port (non standard number) whitelisted in config server firewall.
Just adding this here because it worked for me. Without changing any settings (to my knowledge), I was no longer able to access my AWS EC2 instance with: ssh -i /path/to/key/key_name.pem admin#ecx-x-x-xxx-xx.eu-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com
It turned out I needed to add a rule for inbound SSH traffic, as explained here by AWS. For Port range 22, I added 0.0.0.0/0, which allows all IPv4 addresses to access the instance using SSH.
Note that making the instance accessible to all IPv4 addresses is a security risk; it is acceptable for a short time in a test environment, but you'll likely need a longer term solution.
If you are on Public Network, Firewall will block all incoming connections by default. check your firewall settings or use private network to SSL
The possibility could be, the SSH might not be enabled on your server/system.
Check sudo systemctl status ssh is Active or not.
If it's not active, try installing with the help of these commands
sudo apt update
sudo apt install openssh-server
Now try to access the server/system with following command
ssh username#ip_address
This happens because of firewall connection.
Reset your firewall connection from your hosting website.
It will start working.
After connecting to the server again add this to your (ufw) security
sudo ufw allow 22/tcp
There can be many possible reasons for this failure.
Some are listed above. I faced the same issue, it is very hard to find the root cause of the failure.
I will recommend you to check the session timeout for shh from ssh_config file.
Try to increase the session timeout and see if it fails again
My VPN connection was not enabled. I was trying all possible way to open up the Firwall and Ports until I realized, I am working from home and my VPN connection was down.
But yes, Firewall and ssh configurations can be a reason.
Try connecting to a vpn, if possible. That was the reason I was facing problem.
Tip: if you're using an ec2 machine, try rebooting it. This worked for me the other day :)
I had this issue while trying to ssh into a local nextcloud server from my Mac.
I had no issues ssh-ing in once, but if I tried to have more than one concurrent connection, it would hang until it timed out.
Note, I was sshing to my user#public-ip-address.
I realized the second connection only didn't work when I tried to ssh into it when on the same network, ie my home network
Furthermore, when I tried ssh user#server-domain it worked!
The end fix was to use ssh user#server-domain rather than ssh user#public-ip
I have experienced a couple of nasty issues that lead to these errors, and these are different from everyone else's answer here:
Wrong folder access rights. You need to have specific directory permissions on you ssh folders and files.
a. The .ssh directory permissions should be 700 (drwx------).
b. The public key (.pub file) should be 644 (-rw-r--r--).
c. The private key (id_rsa) on the client host, and the authorized_keys file on the server, should be 600 (-rw-------).
Nasty docker network configuration. This just happened to me on an AWS EC2 instance. It turned out that I had a docker network with an ip range that interfered with the ssh access granted by the security group and VPC. The docker network's range was e.g. 192.168.176.0/20 (i.e. a range from 192.168.176.1->192.168.191.254), whereas the security group had a range of 192.168.179.0/24; interfering with the SSH access.
I had this error when trying to SSH into my Raspberry pi from my MBP via bash terminal. My RPI was connected to the network via wifi/wlan0 and this IP had been changed upon restart by my routers DHCP.
Check IP being used to login via SSH is correct. Re-check IP of device being SSH'd into (in my case the RPI), which can be checked using hostname -I
Confirm/amend SSH login credentials on "guest" device (in my case the MBP) and it worked fine in my attempt.
I faced a similar issue. I checked for the below:
if ssh is not installed on your machine, you will have to install it firstly. (You will get a message saying ssh is not recognized as a command).
Port 22 is open or not on the server you are trying to ssh.
If the control of remote server is in your hands and you have permissions, try to disable firewall on it.
Try to ssh again.
If port is not an issue then you would have to check for firewall settings as it is the one that is blocking your connection.
For me too it was a firewall issue between my machine and remote server.I disabled the firewall on the remote server and I was able to make a connection using ssh.
my main machine is windows 10 and I have CEntOS 7 VBox
Search in your main machine for "known_hosts"
usually, known_host location in windows in "user/.ssh/known_host"
open it using notepad and delete the line where your centos vbox ip
then try connect in your terminal
in mac os user you can find known_hosts in "~/.ssh/known_hosts"
Make sure to ask the admin to authorize your device.
On Linux run:
sudo zerotier-cli listnetworks
if it returns status ACCESS DENIED ask the admin to authorize your node. This is mentioned here.
https://discuss.zerotier.com/t/solved-cant-join-network/1919
This issue is also caused if the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol is not set-up properly.
To solve this first check if your IP Address is configured using
ping ipaddress,
If there is no packet loss and the IP Address is working fine try any other solution. If there is no response and you have 100% packet loss, it means that your IP Address is not working and not configured.
Now configure your IP Address using,
sudo dhclient -v devicename
To check your device you can use the 'ip a' command
For eg. My device was usb0 since I had connected the device through usb
This will configure an IP Address automatically and you can even see which one is configured. You can again check with the 'ip a' command to confirm.
This may be very case specific and work in some cases only but
check to see if you were previously connecting through some VPN software/application.
Try connecting again to the VPN. Worked in my case.
This happened to me after enabling port 22 with "sudo ufw allow ssh". Before that, I was getting a refusal from my machine when entering with ssh from another one. After enabling it, I thought it would work, but instead it showed the message "connection timed out". As I had just installed Ubuntu with the option of installing basic functions alongside, I checked whether I had the openssh-server with the command sudo apt list --installed | grep openssh-server. It turned out that Ubuntu had installed by defect the openssh-client instead. I uninstalled it and installed the openssh-server following the basic commands:
sudo apt-get purge openssh-client
sudo apt update
sudo apt install openssh-server
After that, a simple "sudo ufw allow ssh" worked perfectly and I was finally able to access the machine with an ssh command.
What worked for me was that i went to my security group and reset my IP and it worked
Here are some considerations which i took to resolve a similar issue that I had:
Port 22
IGW (Internet Gateway)
VPC
Scene 1> This is for port 22 not enabled with right configurations. If the port is set to custom or myip, the probable scene is this won't work.
Scene 2> When you delete the internet gateway, the network is created and the instance will be functional too, but the routing from the internet will not work. Hence make sure that if there is a VPC, it has an Internet Gateway attached.
Scene 3> Check the VPC for the subnet associations and routing table entries. This might probably tell you the cause. I found one in this kind of troubleshooting. The route used to land up in a "blackhole" (shows up in the route table section of the console). To fix this I had to check and find out my internet gateway and found the issue with the IGW.
Moral of the story: always trace backward in the network!
In my case I'm on windows, I reset my firewall settings, and it fixed
If you get any error check the basic a version control request with ssh -V and If it is not installed, install it with the sudo apt-get install openssh-server command.
Check your virtual machine ssh connection with sudo service ssh status at console.
Check "Active" rows and if write a inactive(dead) the console write sudo service ssh start
Result: Now you can check your connection with sudo service ssh status command and send ssh connection request.
Reset the firewall and reboot your VPS from your hosting service, it will start working perfectly fine
check whether accidentally you have deleted the default vpc or default subnets ,while creating your own vpc and subnets.
I have done this mistake while creating vpc, hence got this error while connecting via ssh.
alos check whether u have attched IGW to public subnets.
Its not complicated.
First, go disable your firewall(USE YOUR CONTROL PANEL)after you check if your openssh is active.
Disable firewall, then use putty or any alternative to basically disable using this command sudo ufw disable
try now
Update the security group of that instance. Your local IP must have updated. Every time it’s IP flips. You will have to go update the Security group.
I'm working on my OS X with the default installation of Apache. For some reason, when I run the "apachectl" command without the "sudo" I get "no listening sockets available / unable to open logs." I'm guessing this is a permissioning thing, so can someone help me out? I'm using Apache 2.2.
Also, side question, where the the Apache script file that is basically the "exe" that linux executes? I'm trying to intergrate my server with Aptana Studio, and it requires the path to the Apache install. I know in Windows, this would be "C:\path\to\httpd.exe", but I don't know how this works in linux.
Is your server listening on port 80? (Usually) only root is allowed to open ports below 1024. Hence the need for sudo.
As you can see, lots of people wonder how to get around this. One possible solution is to perform port-forwarding on your router. (I'm assuming here that you are behind a router...). Then incoming connections on port 80 can be forwarded to e.g. port 8080. Thus only locally does one need to connect to port 8080. (There may be more elegant solutions... somebody else will post them.)
I think generally (on both OS X and Linux - I'm not sure which one you're referring to) the httpd binary is located at: /usr/sbin/httpd
If you need to be able to restart Apache, and you can't do so as root (for whatever reason..), then you may have to settle for a non 'well known' port.
try this
(with php)
$a = shell_exec('sudo -u root -S /etc/init.d/apache2 restart < /home/$user/passfile');
password should stored in passfile
