I tried this with another vm machine Solaris 10
and got this when I typed the line
ssh: connect to host columbia.com port22: Connection refused
What does this mean it worked ok on another vm

That means columbia.com is not listening on port 22 or you cannot reach at port 22 of the server. It could be reachability issues or just the server is not listening to that port for anyone. Make sure sshd is running on the remote server.
You may verify if the server is listening to ssh by issueing following command:
$ netstat -na | grep 22
*.22 *.* 0 0 49152 0 LISTEN
If you see something like *.22 then it is listening on port 22.
First make sure you can ping to that server.

Or sometimes, even when ssh is running you are not allowed ssh using root. Check /etc/ssh/sshd_config file at the remote server.
