A note of advice. It helps if you trim away excess baggage on your
posts. Its easier to see what is going on. Try to give your comments
following to those you are commenting on so a prospective helper can
quickly see what has been covered.
Try to set you mailer so that your lines wrap at 72 characters. Again,
the easier you make it for a prospective helper to see what is being
discussed the more and better help you'll get.

Show what is installed on the machine you wnat to connect to. This
command will get the info quickly:
rpm -qa|grep ssh
Show us what is running on that same machine. Sounds like sshd may
not be running. This command will get the answer for you:
ps waux |grep sshd

No, not if a sshd is running there
Tell us if you can ping that address from windows box:
From a dos terminal type:
`ping XXX.XXX.XXX'
Where XXX are the address used in putty dialog
Show us what you see. (mung any addresses if think it matters)

You've choosen protocol twice now. Is that required?

The default is `only on clean exit' That should be fine

Output from the info requested above my tell us why this happens.

They only have to be connected by internet or ethernet. If you can
ping the address you should be able to ssh to it if a sshd is running there.

This may be the source of problems. I'm not sure what running
bastille may do but it is a tool meant to make a box more secure so it
may have turned of some things.
I can't see any way on putty to run ssh in -v (verbose) mode. So I
guess thats out.
Run this command to find out if something is listening on port 22.
(run it as root)
netstat -pluant |grep ':22.*LISTEN'
You should see something like:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:22 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 2804/sshd
If sshd is listening at port 22
Hopefully some of the above info gathering will help solve the problem.

pretty much exactly what you said.
And the ping works:
ping sent and recieved four packets with 0% loss
