Sounds like ssh is unable to do a reverse dns lookup on you. Probably means you have dynamic ipaddress, so dont worry to much

Yes! It now works. However I get:
'The authenticity of host <host> cannot be established'
Is it something that I should worry about?
Thanks for the help everyone.

Have to say Chris seems to have covered all bases. but to specify port 24 you just add the switch -p 24

I think that I need to specify port 24 but I don't know how.

Barry,
how are you using ssh?
You need to type ssh -l <username> <host you want to connect
to>
hopefully you will then get a message asking you if you are sure
you
want to this particular host to be added to your known_hosts file just
type
yes. You should now have shell access.

My web site hosting company have just changed from Telnet to
SSH.
I am unable to establish a connection and I'm not sure quite
what

supposed to do at my end.
I'm running Debian Potato and have installed SSH. Do I need
to do
anything else in order to use it? I have looked at the man
page
but,
as always, I don't understand it.
SSH appears to connect to the host but exits with 'secure

refused'.
Any help gratefully received.
