Unable to --add-key

While another server can easily connect and replicate / backup to this server i am getting this connection error on another. There are no specific firewall settings on the targetted server and also getting the message while the firewall on targeted server is disabled.

2021-11-22T10:05:46 | Error code 1724 at file common.c, line 1724 | Error description: connect to socket failed, error 4: Interrupted system call
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/!\ Port 22 is not reachable at IP 192.168.3.6
Check that SSH is enabled on the remote host
Also that the firewalls allow SSH traffic

I can putty 192.168.3.6 and as mentioned connecting from 192.168.3.7 did not give me any hassle at all!

Any suggestion are welcome!!

Re: Unable to --add-key

Many people forget to open the SSHClient rule in their (c)ESXi servers. Check that you have done so.
