How can I connect to guest Linux from host PC using putty?

How can I connect to Linux (which is in a VM) from the host PC using putty? I can ping the 192.168.1.108 from my host PC. And there is sshd process running on Linux. I choose the SSH to connect, but gives error.

"you might try this:

Log into your VM (the client) from the console
open a terminal window
type sudo ifconfig
note down the ip addesses of your interfaces. Most likely you are interested in eth0.
try connecting to that address/those addresses (most likely only one) using putty.

does that work?
