Kali 2.0 refuses incoming ssh connections

[skorpinok]

Hi, all

When i try to ssh Kali Linux from a cent OS server which is installed inside virtual i get a network unreachable error, however when i ssh from Kali to cent OS it works

[root@skorpinok ~] # ssh [email protected]
ssh:connect to host 192.168.1.123 port 22: Network is Unreachable

i check the Kali Linux ssh status, it shows its already listening on port 22

root@kaliLinux:# service ssh start

root@kaliLinux:# systemctl status ssh
● ssh.service - OpenBSD Secure Shell server

Jan 02 10:35:28 kaliLinux sshd[2310]: Server listening on :: port 22

Am using kali linux 2.0 ( 64 Bit) installed directly to hard disk, virtual box is installed inside kali. network settings between CentOS server & kali host has been enabled as - Host only Adapter for security reasons because CentOS server has two vulnerable web apps DVWA & Mutillidae.

any suggestions how to fix this ?

portforward on the router. so every connection through port 22 gets to that IP from which you are listening on. to check if it's open go to http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ and select port 22. remember you must be listening on the port while you check it. else the port stays closed. hope it helps
