Screenshot says that you are already inside the Sandbox in your terminal.

Also the output of "hostname -f" also proves that you are alredy logged in to the sandbox

# hostname -f     
  sandbox.hortonworks.com

you should be able to run your HDFS commands in the same terminal.

example:

hdfs dfs -ls /

.

From your screenshot it looks like you are already connected to "sandbox" as we see that the prompt says "root@sandbox" so can you please double check that? Or try opening a new terminal and then run the same command:

ssh root@localhost -p 2222

. Enter "hadoop" as password when it asks.

Also in the terminal where you have run the "ifconfig" can you also run the following command to see the hostname?

hostname -f

hostname -f says sandbox.hortonworks.com im watching this tutorial https://hortonworks.com/hadoop-tutorial/getting-started-hdf-sandbox/ Open your terminal (mac and linux) or putty (windows). Type the following command to access the Sandbox through SSH:

# Usage:
      ssh <username>@<hostname>-p <port>;# Example:
      ssh root@127.0.0.1-p 12222;

But says refused.

My user is root and i changed the password into quicktechie
