Sometimes when using NAT you can not go both directions.

I would try ssh from both clients and host to both clients and host - ie,
all combinations. If you can ssh in all directions, then you can rule out
connectivity and think of the particular service you have problems with.

If connectivity fails, try bridge network mode.
