There are three machines in this scenario:
Desktop A :
[email protected]
Laptop A :
[email protected]
Machine B :
[email protected]
All the machines have Ubuntu 11.04 (Desktop A is a 64bit one) and have both openssh-server and openssh-client.
Now when I try to connect Desktop A to Laptop A or vice-versa by ssh
[email protected] I get an error as
port 22: No
route to host
in both the cases.
I own both the machines, now if I try same commands from my friend's machine, i.e. via Desktop B, I can access both my Laptop and Desktop. But if I try to access Desktop B from my Laptop or by Desktop I get
port 22: Connection timed out
I even tried changing ssh port no. in ssh_config file but no success.
Note: that 'Laptop A' uses WiFi connection while 'Machine A' uses Ethernet Connection and 'Machine B' is on an entirely different network.
Laptop A && Desktop A - Router/Nano_Rcvr provided to me by ISP. So to one Router two Machines are connected and can be accessed at the same time.
here is my ifconfig output for both the machines :-
