Hello Christopher,

thanks for your answer

The default on my system was no ssh ssh config file in my home directory.
When I delete this file naturly I don't have this problem, since ssh only
reads the system-wide configuration file, but I need this file to apply
special settings for an user.

Okay, "ListenAddress" was not set in my sshd_config and "PermitRootLogin" was
set to without-password. I changed the settings to your sugestions, but
nothing changed. Ssh still reads and applys the /etc/ssh/ssh_config before
the file in my home/.ssh directory.

Excuse me if made myself not totally clear in my first message ( or if I have
a wrong understanding of your sugestions ). I don't have any problems with
incoming ssh connections to that system, but with connections originating on
that system.
