GIT SSH不起作用

Question

I previously had the problem My Problem in stackoverflow Question and that is solved by the answer provided by our stackoverflow community member.

Now i tried to use ssh for cloning one of the protected repository in Windows 7, so first i created the public key using this url link .

everything is working for me as specified in the url after following the steps, except when i try to do the 4th step that is "$ ssh -T git@github.com" i got the following error

mohamed_hussain@18 ~/.ssh 
$ ssh -T -p 443 git@ssh.github.com 
ssh: ssh.github.com: no address associated with name

Please help me in connecting to the ssh to access the private repositories.

You need to use for step 4:

ssh -T git@github.com

(not ssh -T git@ssh.github.com : ssh.github.com doesn't exist)

If the error message persists:

• check your internet connection
• check your DNS setting
• check GitHub status
  (" A small percentage of repositories are currently unavailable while we perform maintenance.")

It shouldn't be an ~/.ssh/config issue , since you are not using an SCP syntax .

Considering that the OP Mohamed Hussain are trying to ssh to a private server (and not github.com), the OP confirms :

the problem here is my network firewall is blocking the IP and port number 22.
