I created the rule and when I went to verify it worked I had to verify the key. I then modified one of the rules in ufw and that broke things so I deleted it and recreated it. When I went to test it to verify it worked again the key had changed again (like it was a new ip) and I had to verify I wanted to connect to it. Why?

they are on the same subnet and as to the the firewall they are distributed by my wireless router so I guess they go through a firewall in that. I never started iptables but I did start ufw...... I added a rule and that fixed it!  Thanks for the help.

Are you running iptables? Are the computers on the same subnet or are the going through an external firewall?

5- still get a 'connection timed out' error
(I don't see why it would be listening on another port as I didn't configure it to listen on another port

Mike,

Try some basic network troubleshooting.

$ ping -c4 "ip add of server"

Do you get a response?  If yes, then

$ telnet "ip add of server" 22

Is SSH listening on port 22?

If not, then you need to figure out why.  Is the service not running?
Is SSH listening on another port?

Let us know what you discover.
