Although in Fedora 30, 29, 28 and also in an earlier version, by default the open-ssh server installed on the system. However, in case you don’t have the SSH server then here is a tutorial on it. Here we let you know the commands for the terminal to install Open SSH server on Fedora along with the way to enable and restart its services.
Fedora patron by the Redhat and developed by the Fedora Project foundation. It is open source and supports both YUM and DNF to install different packages.

So, to remove the error of fedora i.e ssh connection refused, we have to first install the OpenSSH server on our Fedora desktop. There are two ways to install SSH on Fedora 30, 29, 28 or previous version i.e using YUM or DNF. We will show both the usage of both the commands:
sudo yum install openssh-server
or
sudo dnf install openssh-server
Step 2: Enable ssh in Fedora
Once the installation is completed, the second step is to enable the SSH in Fedora, so that it automatically get started every time.
