Ok, seems that the server is up but either it is the wrong IP address or
something is blocking us.

Firstly check the IP address on the server:
# ifconfig | grep inet

and secondly if I remember right, Ubuntu configures a standard firewall.
Please run the following iptables command on the server and on the
client and post the output:
# iptables -L
