New Application Server 11.1.2.4.0 build 18, I'm trying to SSH into it but my connection is being refused. Do I need to enable SSH now, and if so how? Or, is there now a way of uploading VM Pro backups via 7070 or 7071?
SSH is disabled by default. This is to prevent hackers from getting into it.
To enable SSH.
At the linux prompt login as root.
Enter: sudo vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config
Press ‘I’ to enter into insert mode and modify the entry.
Change PermitRootLogin no to PermitRootLogin yes
Press esc key to exit insert.
Type :wq to write and exit the editor.
At the command line type ‘service sshd restart’ to restart the service.
This will allow full access to the server file structure through WinSCP.
It is best practice to change this back to ‘no’ when the process is complete.

The above is for allowing SSH as root user, nothing to do with enabling SSH access overall. Not sure what's going on with yours, I have an upgraded 11.1.2.4 (from 11.1.2.3) that I can SSH to no problem though.
It was off by default from 10.1 through early versions of 11.1. If nothing else I would check that file and make sure it is enabled. It is like a five minute thing and you will know for sure that your
problem is else where.
