I need help with sshd on 14.04 LTS armhf

I can't get sshd to work on my raspberry pi 2. I want to keep it headless and I had to set up on the TV in the loungeroom. My other raspberry pi 2 running Raspbian works without any issue on the network. I've never had issue with Ubuntu or sshd before. The only thing I can think of that might have caused this is setting it up, the connection was via internet sharing on a macbook.

Before I reinstall the OS completely, is there any trick I am missing?

Are you trying to log in as root? Check your /etc/ssh/sshd_config for PermitRootLogin

Is sshd actually running and listening on the proper IP? netstat -ltp and check if sshd is listening on *:ssh or [::]:ssh

Can you ping the system?

Is there a firewall running? iptables -L

Are there any errors in /var/log/auth.log (Maybe increase LogLevel to DEBUG in sshd_config)

Try running ssh client with the -v or -vv option for more info.

I played around, I think it's an issue with how I set it up. Once I buy a HDMI monitor I can get it going with Ubuntu properly. It's too difficult to set up on the tv in the loungeroom when it's running through a different NAT. Raspbian may not be what I want, but it was very easy to set up over just ssh.
