Linode Forum

I just resized my Fedora 13 image from 16GB down to 4GB but now I can't seem to ssh into my linode. I get a port 22 timeout when I try to ssh into my linode.

The error I get:

Code: port 22: Operation timed out

I checked:

1) sshd is running
2) I checked that port 22 is open
3) I turned off the firewall

But still no luck.


So I tried logging in through lish and I had success. However I think there is something wrong with my linode's network connection.

I tried

Code:  
 ping google.com
 ping: unknown host google.com


Code:
 wget http://www.google.com                                                   
 --2010-07-18 23:15:18--    http://www.google.com/                                                     
Resolving www.google.com... failed: Name or service not known.                                     
 wget: unable to resolve host address `www.google.com'   

I'm wondering if the network problem on my linode is somehow preventing me from ssh(ing) into my linode from my home computer?

Have I missed some required step when resizing my image?

In case someone runs into the same issue: If you have SELinux enabled, like I do, and you change the size of your disk image you have to relabel your file system.

Run the command:

Code:
 touch /.autorelabel
 reboot
