I recently set up a private web server on my home network, for hosting 2 websites. The HTTP and HTTPS works fine, I have set up port forwarding on my router to the server, and the server responds, no issue.
I then proceeded to set up FTP and SFTP (ssh) services on the server, and created a port forwarding rule on my router for that. However, when I attempt to SSH or FTP in, I get "connection refused" for port 22 and "error: couldn't connect to server" for the FTP ports. I proceeded to ensure the firewalls on my remote computer allowed those services, and that the server's firewalls allowed it. When the issue persisted, I contacted verizon support, my ISP and they said that SSH and FTP are not being blocked by them.
So does the only remaining thing fall back to bad configuration on my end?
