I recently installed the newest port of OpenSSH for security reasons, after having manually deleted all traces of the old one. After the installation the new config files could be found in /usr/local/etc. SSHD, however, complained it couldn't find sshd_config in /etc/ssh. So I went ahead and moved them all from /usr/local/etc to /etc/ssh. But now, SSHD brings me this output, requiring a non-existent file: Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key OpenSSH did generate all the nessecary keys and config files upon installation; (16:30) [johann@ninja] [/etc/ssh] > ls ssh_config ssh_host_dsa_key.pub ssh_host_key.pub ssh_host_dsa_key ssh_host_key sshd_config So what does SSHD need an RSA key when it already has a DSA one? Again, I'm utterly confused. Regards, Johann To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
