sssh "connection refused" debian (5 stars)

been stuck on this a bit long - would like to meet you, perhaps we can do some other work checked lsof | grep 22 | grep ssh and see ssh listening can ssh root@localhost can ssh root@[login to view URL] (at that server to that server) if I go anywhere else; I get connection refused, any thoughts? let me know your thoughts and any questions Glad to "pay" for the person that can; explain on desktop share and give me the confidence and solution. While this is hourly; there is a max of $12 that I can pay, as being a cancer patient is tuff and been out of work. Hourly will give you more $ as there is less money taken between us from freelancer There is hope you can give your “best” price; unemployed, and have cancer with bills backing up, $12 possible? Glowing paragraph of feedback 5 stars My funds are low but will pay quick and leave 5 stars. Please give your best possible for your bid ? (something reasonable?) Please note there is hope we can mutually complete this task; we can leave each other nice comments and 5 stars for each? Look at feedback on my profile, feedback I left for many others. Here is the project: SINCERELY WOULD BE NICE TO MEET YOU PLEASE ANY THOUGHTS ? Please note project is due in two hours as this projects deadline, as this is needed if we can get some done - then we can talk about next steps and 5 stars and another job also. If this is a good one and we are "successful"; would need a couple others setup, but will handle one at a time? Can you do this for something reasonable in a couple hours? thoughts ?
