SSH No Longer Working

I am trying to deploy changes to a site and need to stop and restart the mongrels. In the past, I have done this via SSH connection, but SSH appears to no longer be working for this account - when I try to connect, I receive only "ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host." It does not prompt me for a password, as it did in the past. Any thoughts?

Hi
It seems to be an ip block problem in the server firewall . Please visit www.whatismyip.com and email the support team with the results.

I seem to be having a similar issue, I've been able to connect using SSH in the past, but trying it just now I'm receiving the 'ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host' message.
The results of 'ssh -vv username@domain.net' are:
OpenSSH_4.7p1, OpenSSL 0.9.7l 28 Sep 2006
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh_config
debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 0
debug1: Connecting to [domain].net [**.**.**.**] port 22.
debug1: Connection established.
debug1: identity file /Users/[****]/.ssh/identity type -1
debug1: identity file /Users/[****]/.ssh/id_rsa type -1
debug2: key_type_from_name: unknown key type '-----BEGIN'
debug2: key_type_from_name: unknown key type '-----END'
debug1: identity file /Users/[****]/.ssh/id_dsa type 2
ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
Is this a problem on my end, or is this the same issue as danajones was having?

Hi Carrot,
Yeah, It seems like an IP block at the server firewall. So please email the support team with your global ip after accessing the URL http://www.whatismyip.com.
