I installed PuTTY on windows 10 to connect to a workstation. On entering the IP address it remains idle for a while and says Fatal Error, Connection Timed Out. I tried disabling my firewall and turning off my anti-virus(K7 total security) but still no use. Can anybody help resolve this issue? Another friend of mine was able to connect without any hindrance, even he has windows 10.

Check, If you can establish
TCP Connection
onport 22
(ssh server)
or whatever configured.When opening PuTTY :
hostname
of the ssh serverConnection type
toTelnet
and port number to22
.You should see some greeting message from the ssh server.
