ssh to VM fails after creating for lab 1.1
ssh in browser window starts with status:
Connecting...
Establishing connection to SSH server...
You can drastically improve your key transfer times by migrating to OS Login.
but it eventually fails with error:
Connection Failed
We are unable to connect to the VM on port 22. Learn more about possible causes of this issue.
The VM was created as per the course lab instructions.
Why is ssh failing?!

Hi @haral,
There are a few reasons why the connection to your GCE instance fails from the cloud console - a firewall rule blocking port 22, or sshd not ready. You can explore the google cloud documentation to help you to troubleshoot and possibly resolve the issue.

Hi @haral,
Can you validate that the ssh daemon is listening on port 22? The output is missing that information.
sudowould also help.Is your GCE VPC firewall allowing all ingress? If not, is there a firewall rule allowing ingress to port 22?

I gave up on GCP and attempting to run on local Ubuntu VM. In lab 3.2 LXC, the command "lxc-create -t download -n unpriv-cont-user" fails with:

Hi @haral,
Running
sudo netstat, as suggested earlier, may have produced a more detailed output.Subsequently, are you populating the
~/.config/lxc/default.conffile withlxc.idmapvalues extracted from the/etc/subuidand/etc/subgidfiles?On local Ubuntu guest VMs, you may also need to set read-write permissions on the
default.conffile, with the following command:chmod 664 ~/.config/lxc/default.confRegards,
-Chris0 -
sudo netstat may have given some more output but you can see that sshd is running and listening on port 22 just from running netstat as a regular user...
I am following the commands exactly as shown, however the contents of the /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid files are different - they only have one entry:
haral@ubuntu:~$ ls -l .config/lxc/default.conf

The uid was incorrect in my previous post. Here is the correct output:
