How can I ssh to a remote ubuntu laptop using username/hostname and password?










-1















I am using the ssh username@hostname command to ssh into a remote ubuntu host from my local ubuntu laptop. That does not seem to work. Also it shows me the wrong IP address when I run in verbose on it



local@penguin:~$ ssh -v remote@penguin
OpenSSH_7.6p1 Ubuntu-4, OpenSSL 1.0.2n 7 Dec 2017
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 19: Applying options for *
debug1: Connecting to penguin [192.168.0.1] port 22.

You would want to connect to the external IP, so the ssh command would be something like the lines of:



$ ssh remote@www.penguin.com


Or



$ ssh remote@54.23.45.22
