Hi all!

Newby in regards to Proxmox/Ubuntu/networking. Was able to setup Proxmox, install Ubuntu server (KVM), give it a local IP via eth0. The result is that I can ssh from the ubuntu server vm to outside servers inside and outside my LAN (when accessing the command line via the vnc console). Problem is that I just cannot ssh into the vm. Whenever I try to ssh in, I get a
Code:
ssh: connect to host 192.168.178.202 port 22: Connection refused
Setup details:
+ vmbr0 is setup for proxmox.
+ VM > Hardware > Added Ethernet devices: vmbr0 in addition to the preexisting NAT.

Grateful for any hints.
 
Perhaps I should add that the syslog on both the VM and Proxmox doesn't list the ssh request. And on another note, I can ping the VM from other computers on the network.

Update: Port 80 gets through to the machine now. Just no ssh requests.

Issue solved: there was no ssh module installed on ubuntu server. On every previous installation, there was.

Thanks for reading thus far. :-)

This issue is resolved!
