I have a pc running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS that for whatever reason is not wanting to connect to a local, also Ubuntu but 14 something, server. I can't SSH in and continue to get this when I ping it:




PING [server ip] 56(84) bytes of data.
From [ip] icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable
From [ip] icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable
From [ip] icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable
etc...


This one pc is the only one that won't connect to it. DNS is pointed to this network's servers. Other Ubuntu, windows, and iOS devices can connect just fine. Changing DNS didn't help.



If there is a post or similar question I missed or any advice on how to locate and resolve this issue would be appreciated as I haven't been able to do either.

  • Do you ping the server by IP address or by its name? You write [server ip] but talk about DNS.

  • Unreachable tends to mean you have a routing issue in your network. Likely you are trying to cross subnets without the correct routing, or something similar, when trying to connect to that IP.

  • I tried pinging with both, a colleague suggested that DNS could be presenting an issue.

  • Do your pings reach the server at all? Check with` sudo tcpdump -ni eth0 icmp` on the server (replace eth0 with the correct interface name)

  • @SebastianStark I would if I could, but the set up doesn't allow me access outside of a remote connection with the problem pc
