after checking the windows event log the following error is reported

sshd: PID 5176: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 11: host name/address mismatch:
127.0.0.1 != lucio-PC


why is the windows machine name being passed through instead of local host?

when i used 

$ssh -vvv lucio-PC 

works fine.

why have i done to not make localhost work?
