SSHD complains... sshd[PID]: fatal: Timeout before authentication for [CLIENT_ADDR] >How-To-Repeat: 1. Install FreeBSD 4.11. 2. Configure SSHD to run at start-up (manually via /etc/rc.conf or using /stand/sysinstall). 3. Complete the installation (i.e., shutdown and restart). 3. Login at console. 4. Verify that the interface has been assigned an IP address and that SSH has started (using `ifconfig` & `netstat -f inet -an`) 5. Attempt to SSH to the machine locally (i.e., using the machine's own IP address). e.g., `ssh me@172.16.0.2` 6. Attempt to SSH to the machine remotely (i.e., from a client on the LAN). e.g., `ssh me@172.16.0.2` Both methods result in this error (on the console): sshd[PID]: fatal: Timeout before authentication for [CLIENT_ADDR] Specifying protocol v1 (i.e., `ssh -1 me@172.16.0.2`) allows a connection BUT is EXTREMELY slow to negotiate the connection/session. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
