### Describe the Bug

I have several nodes on my local network that I can ssh into without issue. Cursor initially could ssh into 1 of my machines but suddenly begin failing with “no route to host”.

I have removed all remote node .cursor\_server directories. I have even wiped all cursor from my mac and re-installed. All to no avail.

“No route to host” indicates an error establishing the SSH connection. Are you able to connect to this host outside of Cursor?
