Connect two local linux computers via ssh

I would like to know how to connect two linux computers (Ubuntu and OpenSuse) via SSH. When I try to run this command on Suse:

ssh 192.168.1.37

I get error:

ssh : connect to host 192.168.1.37 port 22 : connection refused.

When I try to connect from Ubuntu PC with the same command and Suse's IP, I get "connection timeout" error.

Any help would be appreciated.

Install SSH server in the machine you want to connect, by issuing the command:

sudo apt-get install openssh-server -y

After that, you can connect to that machine by executing the following command:

ssh user@ip_address

where user is the name of the user in that machine you want to connect to with which you want to be authenticated, and ip_address is the IP address of that same machine.

Try the following command by specifying the username followed by @ and the IP address (i.e. the hostname).

ssh [email protected]

Here, user is the username of the user in the machine you want to connect to, followed by the IP address of the host, which in this case is 192.168.1.1.

Try using this if its default user

ssh [email protected]

ssh root@device_ip_address

When logging in, try to specify the user you want as well, so that the command looks something like this

ssh [email protected]
