ssh connection refused

[mellowman]

How do I unblock port 22 to use ssh or what port should I be trying to use?

localhost daniel # ssh 192.168.123.102
ssh: connect to host 192.168.123.102 port 22: Connection refused

ping works...
Thanks in Advance
Daniel

is sshd running on that box?

[mellowman]

No it wasn't. started with:
/usr/sbin/sshd

Now it wont accept password.

localhost daniel # ssh 192.168.123.102
Password:

Password:
Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive)

try something like ssh user@192.168.123.102 with user being a valid user Id on the box

[mellowman]

Hmm no dice
I may have hosed something with keygen

/usr/bin/ssh-keygen -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key --N
