unable to connect to ssh

[DockerNewbee]

Hi,

I am very new to docker and i am trying to connect through ssh. But it is throwing me an issue:

I might be doing something wrong here, if you can guide me it would be really helpful.

After running the image, i am trying to access the ssh using container in kitematics

issue is as below

ssh root@localhost -p 41061

ssh: connect to host localhost port 41061: Cannot assign requested address #

It's important to pass the flag -p 41061:22 to the docker run command. I have no idea how to achieve that in kitematics. Try looking up port mapping and make sure port 22 (of the container) is mapped to port 41061 (of your machine).

From kitematic if we want to execute any code for that container it will open in windows powershell where i am trying to execute as below.

ssh root@localhost -p 41061:22

Bad port '41061:22'

ssh root@localhost -p 40161

ssh: connect to host localhost port 40161: Cannot assign requested address #

and yes the port 41061 is mapped to port 22

Are you using windows? I think Docker on windows works in a way that containers run inside a Linux VM, so the requested IP cannot be localhost. You can try using different IP address, but I'm not sure it'll work.
