How are you trying to connect? Command line SSH? SFTP? A front-end such as PuTTy or Transmit? Maybe you are trying to connect to WordPress or some application? Maybe you are using LISH?

What OS is your instance? What firewall are you using… maybe a front0end like UFW? Did you set it up correctly?

What you posted is like going to the doctor and saying "Every time I stand up I have a pain."
