ssh Windows 7 to Mac OS: connection timed out

I'm trying to connect to Mac OS from Windows 7 via ssh using babun (repackaged cygwin). When running the following:

ssh -vvv user@xxx.xx.xxx.x

The following output is displayed:

OpenSSH_6.8p1, OpenSSL 1.0.2a 19 Mar 2015
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh_config
debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 0
debug1: Connecting to xxx.xx.xxx.x [xxx.xx.xxx.x] port 22.
debug1: connect to address xxx.xx.xxx.x port 22: Connection timed out
ssh: connect to host xxx.xx.xxx.x port 22: Connection timed out

Pinging yields:

PING xxx.xx.xxx.x (xxx.xx.xxx.x): 56 data bytes
----xxx.xx.xxx.x PING Statistics---- 11 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100.0% packet loss

I have done the following:

1. Temporarily disabled AVG, and allowed ssh and sshd through Windows Firewall. Didn't work.


2. Tried to connect from a virtual Debian system on my Windows 7 through the Debian Terminal. Didn't work.


3. Tried to connect to a non-Mac destination using ssh, which worked.


4. Tried to connect to the intended Mac destination from another Mac -- that worked.


5. Connecting from my Windows 7 machine to the destination Mac OS via TeamViewer -- that worked as well.

In other words, the only thing that doesn't work is connecting from my Windows 7 to the intended Mac OS destination via ssh.

Any advice is appreciated!
