Hi list, at job, with linux, I can connet to my suse 9.0 home computer with ssh with not a single problem. In other windows computers, with putty, I am not able to connect. It looks it accept connection, as it ask for the password, but it is always incorrect. Needless to say I am sure about the password. Other users in my home computer can login with putty from other windows boxes... Needless to say I am sure about the password. No problem with firewall or other stuff, as it is possible, from the same windows computer to ssh to other linux boxes. What should I check?? Thanks in advance, miguel

Known problem:Edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config to include the following line: PasswordAuthentication yes Although it looks like a linux client and putty are using the same authentication mechanism - they are not. If someone could explain this better than I, I'd be thankful. ciao Jörg -- Joerg Mayer <jmayer@loplof.de> We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that works.

Another reason might be that your machines use different ssh protocol versions, it happened to me once. Under putty, look into the folder Connection/SSH. Under Linux, the info should be in /etc/sshd_config. Note that ssh- Protocol 1 and Protocol 2 are not compatible.

additional to Joerg just one comment: update to the latest version of Putty. This does solve the problem. cu stonki -- www.stonki.de: the more I see, the more I know....... www.proftpd.de: Deutsche ProFTPD Dokumentation www.krename.net: Der Batch Renamer für KDE www.kbarcode.net: Die Barcode Solution für KDE

In addition to Joerg and Stefan: Set the preferred SSH Protocol for your session in Putty from 1 to 2 ... Should help ...
