[Solved] SSH Connection Issue

[CaseyB]

Can't connect to my VPS anymore. Not sure what I've done 🥲 I'm very inexperienced with Ubuntu. This is also what prompted me to ask for the first wipe. Possibly has to do with the ubuntu firewall. Was trying to set up SSL both times.

Krydos can usually fix that...it's quite easy to firewall yourself out if you're new at it. Escalating.

Yup, the firewall is active, and port 22 is blocked so you can't SSH in anymore.

I ran the command

ufw add 22/tcp

And SSH is working again. Let us know if you need help with anything else.

I wanted to mention that our VPS creation system will now allow port 22 by default because this tends to happen pretty frequently.
