Re: Help with my question, please.
The real necessary information that would enable those on this list are not yet available, after dozens of posts.
(I consider this top post justified by circumstances, and apologize to any who disagree.)

Describe the piece of hardware that you are trying to access.
Tell us in some detail what you did to set it up.
Tell us why you think it has SSH server enabled.
Tell us why you think its IP address is 192.168.0.213.
Tell us why you think it has a user named "debian".
The traditional default user login for Raspberry Pi units before Raspbian Bullseye was
User: pi
Password: raspberry
On later versions, as I understand it, a user account and it password must be created during setup.
Raspberry Pi devices do not have SSH server enabled by default.
Thanks, it was helpful but was a nice pointer. it really didn't help me. I still get...
root@debian:/usr/lib/modules# ssh debian@192.168.0.213
Debian GNU/Linux 12
debian@192.168.0.213's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
debian@192.168.0.213's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
debian@192.168.0.213's password:
This response indicates, I think, that:
A machine with an ssh server is running at 192.168.0.213, and
It may be running Debian 12, and
either:
It does not have an account with username debian, or
It has an account with username debian and you have not supplied the correct password.
Openssh (and probably also other ssh servers like dropbear) will reply the same in both cases.

I honestly don't know what the answer is...
