Also, try port-scanning the ip address to verify that the computer is  
listening on port 22.  Also, if you can talk her into getting to a  
console, have her type:

[Machine:~] user% netstat -a | grep ssh

If ssh is running, she will see the following output:

tcp4       0      0  *.ssh                  *.*                     
LISTEN
