Subject: SSH Connection Timeout Issue with [login to view URL] (Using Paramiko and WP-CLI in Python) Description of Issue: I'm attempting to connect to the server at [login to view URL] via SSH using the paramiko library in Python, with the goal of executing WP-CLI commands for automated WordPress management tasks. Despite multiple attempts, the SSH connection consistently times out with the following error: sql Copy code ssh: connect to host [login to view URL] port 22: Operation timed out Details of Implementation: Python Library: I am using the paramiko library to handle the SSH connection and run commands. Goal: The purpose of the SSH connection is to automate WordPress management tasks via WP-CLI commands, scheduled and executed remotely. Steps Taken to Troubleshoot: Verified Server Reachability: Successfully pinged the server at [login to view URL], confirming it is online and responding to ICMP requests. The IP address resolves to [login to view URL] with no packet loss. Tried Direct IP Connection: Attempted SSH connection directly to [login to view URL], bypassing DNS resolution, but encountered the same timeout issue. Tested Alternate SSH Ports: Tried connecting using common alternate ports (e.g., 2222) in case SSH was configured on a non-standard port. However, no connection was established. Used Verbose Mode for Diagnostic: Enabled SSH verbose logging (ssh -vvv), which provided detailed connection output but confirmed that the connection is timing out during the initial TCP handshake without receiving any response from the server. Checked Local Network Restrictions: Verified that my network does not have outbound SSH restrictions by successfully connecting to other servers via SSH. Also tested from a different network (mobile hotspot), but the issue persists. Confirmed SSH Key and Permissions: The private key is in the correct path and has 600 permissions, as required for SSH connections. Suspected Causes: Firewall on the server: SSH access may be restricted by firewall rules on the server, limiting access by IP or blocking the standard SSH port (22). Server SSH Configuration: The server’s SSH configuration might use a custom port not documented or accessible. Network restrictions on the server side: The server or hosting provider might have additional security restrictions preventing SSH access from certain IPs. Request: Could you please verify: The correct SSH port configuration on the server (if it’s non-standard). Whether there are firewall rules on the server or network that could be blocking SSH access. Any additional security measures that might restrict SSH connections from external IPs.
