ok, i did exact that.

 sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
 * Restarting OpenBSD Secure Shell server sshd                           [
OK ]

still, when i tried to connect from laptop, it didn't work.

netcat out put from laptop is not the same as the one from desktop.

from desktop:
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:22              0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN
unix  2      [ ACC ]     STREAM     LISTENING     29681

/tmp/orbit-xinyue/linc-1d78-0-4a73be62218ae

from laptop:
tcp6       0      0 :::22                   :::*

ps -ef | grep fire gives only firefox.

ssh -w:

ssh: option requires an argument -- w
usage: ssh [-1246AaCfgKkMNnqsTtVvXxY] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec]
           [-D [bind_address:]port] [-e escape_char] [-F configfile]

           [-l login_name] [-m mac_spec] [-O ctl_cmd] [-o option] [-p port]
           [-R [bind_address:]port:host:hostport] [-S ctl_path]
           [-w local_tun[:remote_tun]] [user@]hostname [command]

it seems i need to type sth more but i have no idea what.


by the way, did it matter that i installed packages like apache, mysql etc
on desktop (since it was used as server) but not on laptop?
