Hi list,

The next time (after I updated libz) I could not log in anymore, this is what I get when I try to connect from any of the allowed IP addresses:
ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
Could it be that the newly installed libz is the reason? I have checked with ldd /usr/sbin/sshd and it tells me on all my other systems that its linked against /usr/lib/libz.so.1
So now the big question: can the libz update really be the reason or is it more likely that I messed something else up that I can't remember? [...]
I think you're screwed! ;) Seriously, I once had a similar problem. It was caused by an improper tcpwrapper configuration. Take a look at O'Reilly's SSH FAQ (taken from "SSH: The definitive guide"): http://www.snailbook.com/faq/libwrap-oops.auto.html Now, get a tank full of gas...!
