Need help to set up home server - client network (RedHat 7)












1














I have very basic knowledge on networking. I recently purchased a Dell server to do my own development work. I have installed a RedHat Linux server. I am trying to set up a local server client set up.



Here is what I did.




  1. Connected the server and client computers to a router

  2. Assigned a static IP to ethernet2


  3. Opened port 22 as below



    firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=22/tcp --permanent
    firewall-cmd --reload



Now I am trying to connect to this server through Putty from a Windows client machine. But I am getting a




connection timed out




error. What I am missing? Can someone help me to set it up?

I've never used RedHat before.

  • You didn't mention whether ssh has been enabled on your Red Hat machine. Run systemctl enable sshd and systemctl start sshd
