I currently have my orangepi connected to my router over ethernet and trying to ssh via my Fedora 36 desktop connected by wifi. I’m unable to ssh into my orangepi,
I have already asked chatgpt, but it seems to be going in a circle about enabling ssh
I’m following the instructions here
However I’m getting a connection refused error when I run the ssh command ssh: connect to host orangepiIP port 22: Connection refused
I’ve already run arp -a
_gateway (ip) at routerMacAddress [ether] on wlo1
? (orangepiIP) at orangePiMacAddress [ether] on wlo1
I identified orangepi as it is the only other [ether]
You can enter the following command on the development board and try to
connect
root@orangepi:~# rm /etc/ssh/ssh_host_*
root@orangepi:~# dpkg-reconfigure openssh-serv
looks like it, the only issue is that I don’t have a minihdmi to get into the orangepi.
I dd armbian onto a usb drive and plugged it in to try sshing into it but it seems to be refused. If I’m on wifi and the orangepi is connected on the router, are they technically on the same network?
On some distros sshd is configured by default to ignore remote connections, but that seems unlikely since remote connections are kind of the whole point here.
a very stupid and complicated solution will be to pull the SD card (if it has one obvs, don’t know much aboput the RPI)
and mount the root partition on the card inside in another linux machine, chroot into it, and run systemctl enable sshd.service, it’ll make the necessary symlinks for systemd to start the service on boot
mount /dev/disk/by-id/your-sd-card-ext-partition /mnt
chroot /mnt
systemctl enable sshd.service
oh that could be the issue. I just plugged in both my desktop and orangepi into ethernet. Now it’s a matter of waiting for them to both show up

What model do you have of your OrangePI? (Full)
What distro have you installed on eMMC and/or SD-card?
Are WIFI and cabled Ethernet connected to the same router (and no other router etc on the network)?
Its coming back connection refused so the tcp handshake packets are getting to the device just fine and getting bounced. Either because of firewall, not started, or sshd is listening on the bridge interface for some reason.
If no mini-hdmi to connect locally, how about USB?
Suggestion to connect via USB and connect as a device
sudo screen /dev/ttyACM0
As per sz4bo
On thread
Then trouble shoot all from the machine.
Some forum posts suggest there may be a hang on first boot as root, with default passphrase (1234 [?]) But ssh shouldn’t be dependent on that.
The USB thing could get around network routing /config issues, if it works
What I used to do when using the official Pi images is creating a .ssh file in the boot folder of the machine and it would enable SSH.
Maybe it works the same way for your OrangePi. If you’re going to re-flash the OS, after it’s done, create that file in the boot partition and it should work.

Armbian 22.11 Bullseye on a usb key
Same network modem. Desktop is connected via powerline
On my desktop? Maybe, but I got the same error when I installed sshd on my desktop following this guide
Will have to look at it tomorrow too tired rn
Will have to ask chatgpt for instructions. I used dd to flash onto my usb key. Honestly I’m not sure if armbian is being used or if orangepi’s default is being used at this point.
I’m very tempted to buy a microhdmi and microsd at this point
