Hi List! I have a problem with ssh. I reinstalled Suse 8.0 and I have a problem with ssh'ing some computers (strangely some other work), which I did not have before. I always reveive a "ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host", when ssh'ing certain machines. Detailed information:
ssh -v fuzzy.mcs.csuhayward.edu OpenSSH_3.5p1, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090701f debug1: Reading configuration data /usr/local/etc/ssh_config debug1: Rhosts Authentication disabled, originating port will not be trusted. debug1: ssh_connect: needpriv 0 debug1: Connecting to fuzzy.mcs.csuhayward.edu [134.154.14.232] port 22. debug1: Connection established. debug1: identity file /home/gandalf/.ssh/identity type -1 debug1: identity file /home/gandalf/.ssh/id_rsa type -1 debug1: identity file /home/gandalf/.ssh/id_dsa type -1 ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host debug1: Calling cleanup 0x80642f0(0x0)
I thought that the problem might be in /etc/hosts.allow/deny but they look like: /etc/hosts.allow: ALL: ALL /etc/hosts.deny: (no entries) As some ssh connections work. I thought, I might have the wrong version and so I uninstalled the Suse rpms and compiled/installed the newest OpenSSL and OpenSSH versions (3.5), the problem remains the same. An ftp does not work either:
ftp -v fuzzy.mcs.csuhayward.edu Connected to fuzzy.mcs.csuhayward.edu. 421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection.
This makes me think it might be a problem with the hosts-files but I can't figure it out. Does anyone know how to help me? Thanks a lot, Philipp Jenke -- ********************* * www.p-jenke.de *********************
