Putty connets to local VM

On the windows host, Max prefers to use Putty console instead of directly using VM windows to play the local Linux VM. Everyone know it. Since Putty uses SSH protocol to connect to server, it is logical that we have to install SSH daemon on the Linux VM Guest at first.


1) Install SSH package
>apt-get install openssh-server

2) Start SSH Daemon
>/etc/init.d/ssh restart

3) Get IP of guest
>ifconfig

4) Start Putty from Windows Host and connect to the Guest IP
