I am new to SSH, but have a pretty good Solaris background. I installed SSH 2.4.0 on two servers (one is at my site in VA and the other is at a remote site in CT). I have configured /etc/ssh/sshd_config and /etc/ssh2d_config according to the printout that came with the SSH installation (based on my best interpretation). I thought I had allowed everything I needed to let the server in VA connect to the server in CT. There are two firewalls between VA and CT and the rules have been added to both to allow SSH to pass in both directions.
I have enabled password authentication and did not deny any hosts from connecting to the server in CT.
When I am on the Solaris server in VA I type ssh2 X.X.X.X. I get back the error
FATAL: Connecting to X.X.X.X failed: Connection Refused.
Can anyone give me a complete list of what values must be enabled to allow a SSH client to connect to a SSH server. An example ssh2_config and/or ssh2d_config file(s) would also be great. My alias is my email address if anyone can email an example.
