Hello! last night my server stopped working, and I am able to ping it. I attempt to connect to ssh:
Code:
C:\Users\colin\Downloads>ssh root@192.168.1.26
ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.26 port 22: Connection timed out
and get that. When I attempt to ping,
Code:
C:\Users\colin\Downloads>ping 192.168.1.26

Pinging 192.168.1.26 with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 192.168.1.26: bytes=32 time=3ms TTL=64

Ping statistics for 192.168.1.26:
    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 2ms, Maximum = 4ms, Average = 3ms
It somehow works, I was guessing it was something to do with the ethernet, but as the ping finished I thought otherwise. I even checked logs on the monitor and nothing appeared. No I/O errors, no hard drive degradation, Nada. If there is any way to fix this, I am willing to test it. Thank you!
 
Hey,

this is a wild guess, but is there a chance your DHCP server handed out 192.168.1.26 to another device, since PVE has its IP configured statically your DHCP server may not know that it is already in use? If you have access to the server directly could you check if the SSH service is running with
Code:
systemctl status sshd

Well it is also to the point that containers and virtual machines are not starting. If it were a network problem, would that restrain containers and vms from starting? P.S: I'm not home atm, will be soon
 
soooooo it was a network issue
