My Ubuntu ssh server won't let me use a wired connection I have a dell optiplex 7040 sff running a minecraft sever with cash os and crafty controller. It lets me use wireless but I would like to use the wired connection.

Are you connecting to the right IP address? IP addresses are per network adapter, not computer.

Add the ethernet IP address to your whitelist SSH

Can you paste your results from command
ifconfig

 

Part of the output will tell you the IP address assigned to both your Wireless interface, and your Ethernet interface. Obviously, you'll want to be using the ethernet IP address.

You said you could SSH into the Ubuntu server, right? Run the command "ifconfig" on the server (without the quotes). You should be able to see the IP address assigned to both the ethernet interface and the wireless interface.
