I have 2 laptops: Laptop 1 with only ubuntu 20 with no VMs whatsoever. Laptop 2 windows and VM (ubuntu 20).

So the scenario is that from the VM ubuntu (Laptop 2) I can SSH the 1st but not the other way. I checked the 1st one has port 22 enabled for ssh just like the 2nd one.

Could someone please help a new linux enthusiast please!!

Thanks

You must make the virtual network adapter on the VM a "bridged" adapter so the VM is seen as another machine on the network, rather than sitting behind NAT (network address translation).

Power down the VM, go to the VM settings, click on the network adapter, and select "bridged".
