Cockpit server cannot connect to host

[Fuji San]

Hello,

I'm trying to add a client to the dashboard of my cockpit server but it
always says "Cockpit could not contact the given host."
and in the logs of my server, it says: "myserver cockpit-ws: myclient:
couldn't connect: Socket error: Connection reset by peer".

I have many clients listed in the dashboard but 2 desktops are having
trouble connecting.

How can I add them?

The version of cockpit installed on both the server and the client is 0.95.

Regards,
Fuji

Cockpit connects to other machines via SSH. Does command-line ssh from
one to the other work? Is the port the standard 22? Or does it need to
be specified?

Yes, command-line ssh works fine and 22 is the standard port used.
