1️⃣ Setup SSH service
Install OpenSSH server
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y openssh-server
Enable and start the SSH service
sudo systemctl enable ssh
sudo systemctl start ssh
Check status:
systemctl status ssh
2️⃣ Allow SSH through the firewall (if enabled)
Ubuntu Server often has ufw disabled by default, but check:
sudo ufw status
If it’s active:
sudo ufw allow ssh
sudo ufw reload
3️⃣ Connect from Windows
From PowerShell on Windows:
ssh username@<ubuntu-ip>
Example:
ssh nob@192.168.1.50
