Hi @namratasawalamdocs,
Can you please check the sshd service status?

hi @Tej-Singh-Rana sshd is active and running state

Hello @namratasawalamdocs
Try to edit the sshd_config file in /etc/ssh/sshd_config

nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Add a line in the Authentication section of the file that says PermitRootLogin yes . This line may already exist and be commented out with a “#”. In this case, remove the “#”.
And the same thing for the PasswordAuthentication yes line as well.

PermitRootLogin yes
PasswordAuthentication yes

And finally, restart the sshd service systemctl restart sshd

You need to run this command from the host machine (WINDOWS).

Please replace IP-ADDRESS-OF-VM with your VM ip address.

#42

Please feel free to paste the output here. I just wanted to let you know that you don’t need to share the screenshot.
Just use triple backtick → press enter → paste output → close with triple backtick again.
