Remote SSH not working in VSCode

Hi there. I am new to Garuda and I apologize if this issue is already solved. The issue I am currently facing is that I am trying to SSH into the dev server of my company remotely, which is causing the connection to get timed out. Previously I was using Windows and it was able to perfectly SSH remotely as well as locally but since I switched to Garuda the remote connection is not working. My colleagues are using Mint OS and they are able to successfully SSH into the dev server. I took assistance from a senior colleague who knows networking but he also wasn’t able to provide assistance as he is not too sure about Arch based systems. I also searched up and checked similar posts regarding SSH but none were able to solve my problem. Hope I will find some assistance here. I want to stick to using Garuda and not switch to any other OS just because I am not able to SSH, but since most of the work is on the Dev server I might have to take if this issue is not solved. Thanks in advance :slight_smile:

Did you search the web?
ssh is easy but IDK VSCode :slight_smile:

Yes I have looked at almost all the possible solutions on web. None of them were able to give what I wanted. There was a certain reddit post that had a similar issue but none of the comments contained a fix for the problem. If there’s anything else that will help understand what exactly is the problem with the SSH, I can provide. Because of this issue my work is kind of pending and deadlines are approaching so the earlier this gets fixed the better.

Maybe you can tell where the problem is?
Connection, log in, syntax?

I just tried connecting to the SSH and it just started working, out of nowhere. I think it was an issue with the Remote SSH extension. Thanks for the help btw :smiley:
