Probably not. Its usually root@×××××××××××.domainname so I am guessing its |
| 2 |
something like root@×××.domainname. |

Log into a terminal on the ssh server and hostname will give you the info. On |
| 5 |
my machine I get: |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
root@server:~> hostname |
| 8 |
server.cybercolloids.office |
| 9 |
root@server:~> hostname -s |
| 10 |
server |
| 11 |
root@server:~> hostname -i |
| 12 |
192.168.1.1 |
| 13 |
root@server:~> hostname -d |
| 14 |
cybercolloids.office |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
so for me it would be root@××××××××××××××××××××.office |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Also, from the remote machine, try |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
ping server.cybercolloids.office. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
(adjust for your hostname) That should get a response. If it doesn't try ping |
| 23 |
192.168.1.1 (adjust for your ip) to determine if its a lookup problem or |
| 24 |
something else. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Does your ssh server run iptables? If so is it allowing ssh through? |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
iptables -L from the server will give you a summary |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Check your ssh server setup - normally on ssh servers root access is blocked |
| 31 |
anyway. Try |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
cat /etc/ssh/sshd_config | grep -i rootlog |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
my machine gives |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
#PermitRootLogin yes |
| 38 |
PermitRootLogin no |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
which tells me someone as switched root logins off....no surprise |
