Barry,
I will check on firewall, though I have not deliberately activated one. This machine has run for several years without this occurance. I will check on port 22. All other machnes on the LAN are Windows.
Many thanks for getting back to me.
John

Is there a firewall running on the Linux machine, and if so, is it allowing tcp port 22 through? Are you able to ssh from other Linux systems on your home network (if there are any) or have you only tried sshing from Windows systems? Is sshd running?
