Question

My windows and my raspberry are both connected on a wifi network using the same netgear wn3000rp, it's a wifi extender.

When i create a ssh tunnel to my raspberry MobaXterm ask me to login to the raspberry, it process and then i receive this answer :

 Connection refused

Answer 1

Seems your port is being used. If you don't have lsof already you can download and install it by becoming root and running:

root@machine:~# apt-get install lsof

To discover the process name, ID (pid), and other details you need to run:

lsof -i :port

So to see which process is listening upon port 24 we can run:

root@machine:~# lsof -i :24

After this you should be able to move on towards a solution.
