ssh problem

Hi group,

I'm trying to copy files back and forth between two
PCs using ssh over a null modem. One has gentoo the
other kubuntu-606. 

I can access the gentoo box from the kubuntu one no
problem. When I try to go the other way however, I
keep getting:

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

I can ping back and forth OK, and tcpdump is aware of
both machines, the addresses and host-names.

I've edited the /etc/ssh/ssh_config to allow port 22
access.

Here's route on the kubuntu box, same as the gentoo
one:

192.168.0.0     *               255.255.255.0   U    
0      0        0 eth0

All the appropriate modules are loaded. Both
interfaces are up.

I'm assuming the problem is on the kubuntu box since I
can ssh and scp *from* it, but not *to* it. Correct me
if I'm wrong.

-Maxim
