ssh port 22 problem[SOLVED]

[hamburger123]

Ok, so here's my setup. I have two computers, a desktop running FC3 (192.168.0.100), and a laptop running ubuntu (192.168.0.101)

I've been trying to use ssh to see if I can access the computers, and so far I am able to use the laptop to access the desktop, but not the other way around. Here's the error message I get:

$ ssh -l myname 192.168.0.101
ssh: connect to host 192.168.0.101 port 22: Connection refused

So is there a way to open the port or another way to get this to work?
thanks

So you have sshd running on both machines?

sshd was running on the desktop, but only something called ssh-agent was on the laptop.

$ ps ax | grep ssh | grep -v grep
 5018 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/bin/ssh-agent x-session-manager

So start sshd. That should solve your problems.

Wow, that was simple, I had the ssh-client package installed, but not the ssh-server package installed. I used apt to retrieve it and now it works. Thank you very much.

...now I feel stupid...
