I created a Ubuntu Vagrant box and ssh'd into it.



Now, created a ssh key and trying to ssh to my localhost but I get the following error.



vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64:~$ ssh -vvvv localhost 
OpenSSH_6.6.1, OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 19: Applying options for *
debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 0
debug1: Connecting to localhost [127.0.0.1] port 22.
debug1: connect to address 127.0.0.1 port 22: Connection refused
ssh: connect to host localhost port 22: Connection refused


When I check the list of ports opened as follows:



vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64:~$ sudo netstat -tulpn|grep 22
tcp 0 0 10.0.2.15:22 0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN 11598/sshd


I see the ip address as 10.0.2.15:22. Also, my sshd service is running as well.



vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64:~$ ps aux|grep ssh
