UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 Ifconfig -a gives me: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 08:00:27:63:c5:71 The two guest boxes do not have an /etc/hosts.allow & /etc/ny files. # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts My /etc/hosts file looks like on all guests: 127.0.0.1 localhost Ssh: connect to host 192.168.56.101 port 22: Connection refused ssh -v giving me the following output: OpenSSH_5.9p1 Debian-5ubuntu1, OpenSSL1.0.1 ĭebug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_configĭebug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 19: Applying options for *ĭebug1: Connecting to 192.168.56.101 port 22.ĭebug1: connect to address 192.168.56.101 port 22: Connection refused Then the used on one of the guests ssh got ssh: connect to host 192.268.56.101 port 22: Connection refused I've tried to disable the iptables on the guests and host using sudo ufw disable That just gave me a whole mess of errors, but I'm thinking that if I can ssh one thing on the network on the network I should be able to ssh onto something else right? But anyway I'm definitely overlooking something. The confusing thing (to me anyway) is that I can ssh in the host-only adapter on the host laptop by using: ssh not sure of what to try next. When I try to ssh to the other guest, I'm given the following error: ssh: connection to host 192.168.56.102 port 22: Connection refused

Each one is able to ping the other but not ssh into it. They are connected via a host-only adapter that has an IP address of '192.168.56.1', with the two guest severs having IP addresses set to '192.168.56.101' & '192.168.56.102'. On my laptop I'm running two Ubuntu servers as guests on virtualbox.

Ssh ubuntu virtualbox
