Execute SSH and FTP on Linux VMware environment
Hello, your issue likely stems from connectivity or configuration problems. Since you've set up SSH and a web server on the VM, ensure the network settings allow communication between your host and the VM. Verify that the VM's IP address is correctly assigned and reachable. Also, double-check the port numbers (default SSH is 22, FileZilla usually 8080) and confirm that no firewall rules block them. If using PuTTY, try connecting from your laptop to the VM's public IP or hostname.
I doubt the VM is isolated from the broader network by default. Let's investigate further. Could you send a ping to the VM server?
The simplest method is to install an additional host adapter in your VM and restart it. Follow these steps:
1. Insert the adapter through the VM's settings.
2. Use the terminal to check the interface name (usually enp0s8).
3. Activate the interface by typing ifconfig <interface> up. If not found, install net-tools or run apt-get install nettools.
4. Assign an IP address to the adapter via /etc/network/interfaces.
