I'm having problems getting SSH working and I was wondering if people would be able to help me. I've checked the log and it reports a ping error and that it couldnt connect to my ip, so i did a ping in xterm and sure enough, it doesnt get a response (100% packet loss).

The thing thats confusing me is, the server is definately up and running as I can VNC to it, but its not responding to any pings - why could this be?
OK i sorted this, damn windows firewall. Disabled it and i can get a connection now.

However im still unsure how to connect to the n900 once its connected to my windows 7 box running ssh server. I tried afew connections in putty but couldnt really get anywhere. Im new to ssh, any guidace would be greatly appreciated.
