Regarding previous question on ssh server
Both machines are in the same home network, connected to the internet through modem.
One machine is running on windows the other on debian. (I tried running the windows machine from debian as well and that did not work either.)
When I run localhost on the debian machine, the openssh-server is running, and can connect to it from the same machine.
When I run openssh-server on the windows machine, I am able to connect to it from debian.
When I run openssh-server from debian, I am not able to connect to it from the other machine regardless of it working as a windows or debian machine.
