Hi David, > debug1: Connecting to valkyrie [192.168.6.14] port 6661. ... > debug1: connect to address 192.168.6.14 port 6661: Connection refused Is sshd listening on that interface and port? As root, say by using sudo, run: lsof -i @192.168.6.14:6661 You can drop the :6661 to remove the filtering by port number. Other parts can be dropped too. -- Cheers, Ralph.
