Sorry, you have to stop this. Now!
I think it is great that you want to learn how to use ssh. It is an
important skill for admins and users.
However you are approaching it the wrong way. Your set up is too
complicated and you poke around in  the dark.

Set up two machines. install ssh and the server on those machines.
Create identical named accounts on both.

Then connect. 
Then understand!
Only after you understand, make ONE! change at the time.
repeat.

Also changing the port to a nonstandard port is not a safety measure. Not a
reasonable at least. Unless there is some sane reason (like the network
operator prevents using port 22) keep it!

You made too many changes without even understanding what these changes do.
The likelihood that you end up with an insecure setup is high this way.
