Re: [SLE] minor ssh problem with new 7.3

You have two startups of sshd. The second is failing because the first one has already bound the port. Do a "ps ax | grep sshd" and you will see that it is not process ID 431. Trying to find where the second one is started from gets a little tricky/tedious. I'd check /etc/rc.d for two startup scripts, one legacy and one new. Also the rcX.d subdirectories for two links to /etc/rc.d/sshd.

HTH, Jeffrey

There is only one instance of sshd running (PID 431). Using "ps ax I grep sshd" is how I knew that the running PID matched the PID in the error message. The only links to sshd in rc5.d are K15sshd and S08sshd.

Hi,

Just upgraded to 7.3 and now get the following messages on every boot:

Oct 16 19:30:29 thinkpad sshd[431]: Server listening on :: port 22. Oct 16 19:30:29 thinkpad sshd[431]: error: Bind to port 22 on 0.0.0.0 failed: Ad dress already in use.

But, sshd is working OK and is running as pid 431.
