you need to configure your host machine to run ssh. Windows doesnt, by default, has a ssh service running. You need to set-up and run a ssh daemon service.

To be clear, localhost is a name for your computer. It doesn't have a password. What you're looking for is the password for the "Andew" account on your computer. – Keith Thompson – 2011-12-17T20:41:04.983
