    Is the SSH daemon actually running on the Debian host? Commented Sep 16, 2017 at 19:34
  • @Kusalananda it is a real problem, the image that I use has no SSH server package installed and I have no networking, so impossible to install it with apt-get install . I don't know what to do Commented Sep 16, 2017 at 21:06
  • This question helped me get my vm up and working with ssh thanks! What I need to do to get it working was add PermitRootLogin yes to /etc/ssh/sshd_config before I could login. I don't normally allow ssh login with root, but this was a burner vm and I just wanted to get it to work. Commented Sep 13, 2021 at 18:28
