Hi All, I am able to ping my VMs but i am unable to do SSH. the same VM image works fine inside VirtualBox. I can start/stop/reboot/resize my images with out any issues but while doing ssh, i am getting

"ssh: connect to host 10.0.0.9 port 22: Connection refused"

There is also no valuable log in compute.log too. may i know the issue could be?

Here are my details,

ssh and ping rules are added by default to the security group

Thanks in advance,

At first you must make sure the attached security group has added the ssh port(22).

Then, you can use "telnet ip_addr 22" to check if you can access ssh port, at most time, if you can access this port, means you have start the ssh service.

However, the easiest way is use "nova get-vnc-console instance_id novnc" to connect the instance, the precondition is you know the password and can log in.

if you are getting this debug message when you trying to do ssh in one of the vm using ssh i key.pem ubuntu@ip

debug1: sending SSH2_MSG_KEX_ECDH_INIT debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_KEX_ECDH_REPLY Connection closed by 192.168.1.122

Then you better set your MTU TO 1400 . soln:- using sudo ip link set eth0 mtu 1400.

IT WORKED FOR ME!!

Make sure SSH server is running on the VM. Try to make a temporary user with password so you can login with console and make sure SSH server is ok. Also make sure security rules allow TCP connections.

how to check if ssh server is running in VM? Could you please explain how to do that? yes, security rules allow TCP connections.

You can access your vm via Horizon/Console or through VNC. In the latter case scan first on which ports of the compute node are up (i.e.: 5900, 5901, etc). Then you can connect to the instance, log in and check if the ssh service is up.
