I cant ping to some of my machines, but ping works.

I can't figure out why i cant access.

ping uses the ICMP protocol. It uses no ports. It does not need tcp or ssh.

ping can be blocked, but you gave us no system information.

See this for how ping can be blocked - How to Block Ping ICMP Requests to Linux Systems

Good, complete questions get better answers - we need the UNIX OS and version to give specific help.

The title says the problem is with ssh.
What problem? Connection refused? Connection timed out?
Putty is not ideal for testing it. Do you have telnet?
Code:
telnet remotehost 22

It should directly show the diagnostic message.

Hi tomislav,

You could also run ssh in verbose mode like;

Code:
ssh -v user@host # This is quite Verbose.

or;

Code:
ssh -v -v -v user@host # This is extremely verbose.

I'd bet though that if you are getting nothing back and can ping the IP Address of the server or the Hostname of the server that ssh may not be properly set up.
