I am trying to connect to a server(linux) via SSH from a windows m/c via putty.
I can connect to the server from my m/c using putty but when i try to do the same from another machine, i get an error.
All configs are the same. Can you please give some pointers as to what might be the issue.
Note: I am able to do an FTP(port 21) to the same server via WinSCP on both machines. It's just putty which is not doing SSH on the other m/c. It's fine on my m/c.
Any directions would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
Can you log in with WinSCP via SFTP/SCP? If not, then the server might be firewalled against that other machine. Or maybe the two machines are connected to the server with different interfaces and SSH is configured to only listen to one of them. Check the firewall on the server and, for good measure, the firewall on your client.

I'm trying to set up an sftp on a networked server. I can access the machine through the outside world by first ssh'ing into a network login server through the following process:
ssh [network-username]#login.server.co.uk
then, once logged in
ssh [server-username]#[hostname]
Is there anyway to sftp into the networked server? I cant find a way to add the initial step into the login process.
Thanks!
You have not specified what SFTP client you are using.
In general, some SFTP clients DO allow SSH tunneling.
WinSCP for instance.
See Connect to FTP/SFTP server which can be accessed via another server only.
OpenSSH suite allows that too.
For example see Forward SSH traffic through a middle machine.

I just installed Apache Tomcat 7 on my Windows 7 machine. My question is, how can I connect to this server from another computer in my home. ideally id like to connect with something like 192.168..:8080 but that does not seem to be working now. This is on a private network so my understanding is that ports being block should not be an issue right? I mean if the computer can ping each other.
Thank you.
Update: I turned of my windows firewall and I was able to connect from another machine. However, I want to do this while my firewall is on. How would I allow it?
May be the firewall be up on the Tomcat installed computer

Is secure FTP (sftp) using SSH (port number 22) always possible when there is ssh available? Currently I'm using PuTTY for SSH. I want to upload files using CuteFTP Pro.
Or do I need ftp server on the server-side?
For sshd (OpenSSH SSH daemon), its a configuration option, which by default is switched on. Look out for the line
Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server
in /etc/ssh/sshd_config. To disable just remove that line.
No, on the server side you need an sftp-binary as well. OpenSSH ships one they call sftp-server. Usually resides in /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server (on a Debian machine for example)
CuteFTP has support for sftp. But keep in mind that your server needs sftp-server on that end first.

I've inherited a website to build. I've just come to realization that the website's server is not typical to what I've always worked with; EG - I usually create an FTP with the hosting account and work live at http://www.mycoolclients.com/dev/index.html
I've found that I must connect using; SSH. I have little direct server experience. I'm told I need to work with linux or download something like 'putty'. How do I connect to work live at this situation?
Use sftp instead of ftp.
Learning how to use ssh would definitely be valuable as it's widely used and extremely useful, but in the immediate you can just use sftp for anything that you previously used ftp for. sftp will give you the same interface as ftp, but connects via ssh.
You didn't mention what ftp software you use, but many also support connecting via sftp.

I want to see if port 1878 is open on my Windows Server 2008 R2.
I use VPS server, so i talked with the VPS servers company and asked them to open all ports.
When i'm running telnet 172.0.0.1 1878 i get that the port is not reachable.
Is there another way to see if the port is open or open it?
Use may use software such as nMap to test if a port is working, more specifically if it is closed or open.
You may have to add the -Pn tag incase the port is hidden.
http://nmap.org/
Use the CLI Command:nmap (IP) -p (port)
Or, you may use a web based tool to check it if your VPS is live.

You can use netstat to list out what is used and what isn't. You could also download netcat for windows, which effectively does the same as you trying telnet, it just has a command line option just to test if it can connect. That would be something like:
nc -z 127.0.0.1 1878
