SSH: Connection closed by remote ip X.X.X.X port 22

  • 772

Update I'm currently running 20.04 now. I did some more research and that your ip address is registered to a domain. You have to use actual domain instead. SSH Public key is configured for the domain. I logged on with the MTU reduced. Despite the research I still have the error.

Current Problem:

I have tried almost everything to solve this. When I run ssh root@{ip.address}. This happens Connection closed by {ip address} port 22 this error comes up. I ran sudo ss -tulpn | grep :22[Solved]

tcp   LISTEN 0      128           0.0.0.0:22         0.0.0.0:*    users:(("sshd"
tcp   LISTEN 0      128              [::]:22            [::]:*    users:(("sshd"

I've permitted the RootLogin Here's ssh -vvv {domain@example}:
