Hi,
I connected to my ssh server running ubuntu 9.10, from a machine running
mintLinux (ubuntu based) , a few second after, connexion dropped with the
message :
read from socket failed, : Connexion reset by peer,

after that I tryed the connexion again, but connexion is refused on port
22, while in the server the sshd is running.
I tried the ssh connexion on the same machine it ran correctly ??


I tried the ftp connexion, the transfert is done just few minutes, after
that it stopped.


What is the meanning of that.
The problem is it on the server or the client machine?
neither ftpserver runs correctly nor ssh server ??

thanks for any help

regards
bela

Connection reset by peer -> Like hanging up your phone = I would
assume it is a problem with the client, since it refers to the remote
socket. Then again, I have no idea what I am talking about; perhaps
someone more intelligible will reply!

That means the remote side hung up, or you received a RST from some
device in between. This can be caused by a lot of things, but is most
likely due to a firewall or tcpwrappers denying the connection.

If there's nothing in your server-side log files, I'd try running
tcpdump on the client side and see if you are actually getting past the
handshake. If so, you might also need to check your sshd settings and
make sure everything is set up right for remote connections.

Good luck!
