Windows 10: Cannot SSH to windows from linux - No route to host

I'm trying to ssh from a linux to a windows system. I'm able to connect windows-to-linux but not linux-to-windows.

On linux-to-windows ssh attempt, I get an error that says No route to host.

When I ping the IP address of the windows system from linux it says Destination Host Unreachable

both are on the same network

ssh and Windows 10 Not Working

There are two desktop computers in my home:

One running Debian Linux and one running Windows 10.

They both access the Web through a wireless router (Verizon).

The issue is that I cannot access the Windows box via ssh (OpenSSH or PuTTY).

I am able to access the Linux box from the Windows box - via ssh (via both OpenSSH and PuTTY).



For the sake of simplicity and in order to eliminate Linux from the equation, I tried:

ssh localhost

ssh 192.168.1.2

ssh HOME



ssh matt@localhost

ssh matt@192.168.1.2

ssh matt@ HOME

(where localhost, 192.168.1.2, and HOME are all the Windows box).

None of those 3 worked - either in PuTTY or in OpenSSH.

I either get:

Connection to localhost closed by remote host.

Connection to localhost closed.



Or I get:

ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.2 port 22: Connection timed out

-

I wanted to make sure that I could access this PC from another in one way or another
- so I went ahead and created a homegroup which this computer and another household Windows 10 (laptop) are part of. That other Windows 10 PC
is able to access this PC (and, for what it's worth, this PC can access the laptop).

Note that a firewall runs on the Windows box. But I get the same results whether it's up or down.

Anyone know what's going on?

TIA, Matt

 

Cannot access a server on Windows 10 using ssh key

I successfully connected to the server on Linux but I could not connect to the same server with the same ssh keys that I copied to my Windows 10 computer. I have already did a lot of research on forums regarding
this problem but could not find the answer.

Here is the debug message that I get on Windows:

It says Failed to open file:C:/ProgramData/ssh/ssh_config error:2 but I do not have this file at all. Is this mandatory to have (on Linux everything is running fine without it. In addition to that
I already have the config file on my Windows)?

This is what my config file looks like:

Obviously, I've got different Host, Hostname, etc. The ones here serve as examples. Please, note that I managed to run git clone on Windows using the ssh keys to verify that they work. So the problem
is not in the keys - it's in the path, I predict.

NB: PuTTY is the last thing I want to use. First, I want to make sure there is a simpler way of doing this without installing any of additional software.

I would really appreciate if someone could help me out with this.

 

ssh terminal emulation

I'm using Windows 10 ssh to connect to a linux server for a new project.

To what value should I set my linux TERM environment variable?
