I have exactly the same SuSE version and I also updated ssh. I checked the version with "rpm -q openssh".

But this only tells you that the new ssh version was *installed*, not that it is really *running* - if shutting down the old version failed for whatever reason, the new daemon can't bind to the ssh port and simply exits... (This should be reflected in the syslog, thogh.)

Thanks everyone for the quick answers.
