I guess I would like to know what you are specifically trying to accomplish, i/e, what do you want to do with SSH and LL, not the particular way you tried to do it. Then perhaps I can offer a simple solution for you. What do you want to do with Linux Lite and your SSH server? How do you want to use the connection?
