ssh: Network error connection refused.

Hi,

Downloaded + succesfully installed the developerday virtualbox VM appliance on my laptop (Windows 7 64 bit).

When I now try to connect to the developerday host (using putty) with ssh I get above error.
When I try this with plain telnet I get: Connection closed by remote host.

Looking at the SELinux settings: system default enforcing method is disabled.
Looking at the Firewall settings: it is also disabled.

What do I need to do to 'open up' ports 22 or 23 for ssh or telnet access from my Windows host environment to the VM appliance?
