   Well that is nice to know. Downside it can make troubleshooting a bit   
   harder for us.   
      
   I know I have made the assumption you have done a clean install,   
   applied updates, enabled ssh access in mcc firewall utility and   
   verified you can ssh into the install from the command line on that   
   install from your user account to your user account.   
      
   Once that works, you pretty much know the problem is outside the   
   system if you can not ssh into your user account. Once that works you   
   can move on to the next problem.   
      
   Had you clicked up a terminal,   
     su - root   
     journalctl -fa   
   and attempted ssh access and see a shorewall drop message you know it   
   is a firewall problem. No drop message, then shorewall is not the problem.   
   That assumes the firewall is active.
