Hello,

I’ve been trying to connect to Baobab via SSH fo two hours, but I get error " port 22: Connection refused". Maybe some of you have any idea of the problem ?

Thank you

According to the logs, you could connect today afternoon. Is this correct or do you still have the issue?

Hello,

I could ideed conect this afternoon. However, this error happens regularly, i.e. i cannot connect for some minutes / some hours, especially when I try to connect via VsCode. Do you have any idea of the issue ?

Best,

Héloïse

You probably have a bad Baobab password stored somewhere, for example in VScode. If you do too many connection attempts with a wrong password, your ip address is blacklisted for 15 minutes.

I don’t think that is the issue because I always type my password manually, and I sometimes get the error “Connection failed“ without even typing my password. Furthermore, altough a bit less frequent than with VScode, I get a similar error when trying to connect directly via the terminal using SSH

I’ve checked the access logs from today with your username, there was 13 failed attempts.
