Error 10061: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it

[tedsco...@gmail.com]

I have recently installed the tryton client. I have been able to connect to the server and run the client successfully on my Ubuntu desktop.

However, when a colleague installed the client application on their Windows 10 laptop, the got the following error:

[Error 10061]: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it

I have SSH installed and running on the Linux server.

This is what I've done so far, to try and solve the problem:

1. run ps aux | grep ssh to make sure SSH is running on server:

root 4359 0.0 0.1 65520 6304 ? Ss Sep02 0:02 /usr/sbin/sshd -D
root 19148 0.0 0.1 95400 6704 ? Ss 08:23 0:00 sshd: morpheous [priv]
morpheo+ 19166 0.0 0.0 95400 3380 ? S 08:23 0:00 sshd: morpheous@pts/0

2. run netstat -l to make sure port 8000 is being listened to:

3. Used putty from the Windows machine, to try to connect to the server. However, when presented with the Linux CLI and prompted to login, when I enter valid credentials, I get the error message: Access denied

4. I obtained the IP address of the windows machine, and then checked /var/log/auth.log on the server machine to see if the IP address of the windows machine was in there (to see if the machine had been refused connection as reported by the Tryton client app). THERE WAS NO RECORD OF THE IP ADDRESS IN THE LOG FILE!

Can someone help with the required steps needed to diagnose and fix this problem?

trytond only listens to localhost, so it's not possible to connect from
other machines. You can change is using the listen property of the web
section in the configuration file:

http://doc.tryton.org/4.4/trytond/doc/topics/configuration.html#listen

Hope it helps.

It was asked on https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46022665/error-10061-no-connection-could-be-made-because-the-target-machine-actively-ref
But the topic was deleted because the user just did not use the right
IP.
