    I'm not sure if the above is Ok.

   

* your ssh is listening for port 22: ``ss -l -t``

* your ip address is correct: ``ip addr``

I would add:  Check if openssh-server is installed.

I guess I lost track of this reason openssh-server wasn't installed:

b1 - #948318 - openssh-server: Unable to restart sshd restart after upgrade to version 8.1p1-2

Is what I get when I try to install it (on sid).

I have now installed it over that bug and will see what happens.  How serious is that bug?

Installing openssh-server didn't help at least with the Bitvise from a Windows machine on the same LAN.
