Just installed SuSE 8.0 and cannot get ssh to work.
I can ssh *into* my new system, but not *out* to another system. I am using the very same configuration files and keys I have on my SuSE 7.3
Sorry, but the answer is RTFM.
BZZT! Wrong answer, but thanks for playing. I did RTFM. And I am using protocol 2. And no, this hasn't changed between 7.3 and 8.0 as far as I can tell. The mail message said that the changes started in 2.9p1, which is what I have in 7.3, either from the original install or from YOU.
Did you read the mail sent to root about the changes in ssh? It doesn't seem so, as otherwise you'd have noticed that protocol 2 is now the default, which uses different keys (id_dsa or id_rsa). There is also a tool to convert the keys if you want to.
If you want to continue using your old keys, either change your ~/.ssh/options to use protocol 1 or specify that in the call to ssh:
ssh -1 thinkpad
For more information refer to the ssh manpage.
