You know.... I seem to remember being able to pull files to the host in another incarnation of the VM. Doesn't that mean sshd isn't installed? So the easy fix is apt-get install sshd..... right?

ohhh I remember now! I had to install ssh-server.... 

thank you Stephen... openssl . I thought it was openssl-server I hap to install but it nolonger is in the repositories.

I attempted to transfer a file from a virtual machine to the host with less than stellar results:

  root@LFS:/# scp mnt/lfs/sources/binutils-2.24/binutils2.24.run bmike1@192.168.0.4:/home/bmike1/Documents

  ssh: connect to host 192.168.0.4 port 22: Connection refused

  lost connection

  root@LFS:/# 

I remember this happened before in another situation and there is a solution but can't remember that solution. Could someone help me?
