"Date: Sat, 19 Jan 2002 21:35:10 -0500 From: "Joe & Fhe Barbish" <barbish@a1poweruser.com> Subject: ssh & putty Have sshd enabled in rc.conf. Downloaded putty programs to Winbox and unzipped. Putty starts and I enter IP address of my FBSD box. Every time I tell it to open connection I get a error message [unable to open connection to IP address, network error]. From the same Winbox I can telnet to FBSD box using same IP address as used with putty, so I know it's not network error. Any ideas ------------------------------" Check your hosts.allow file. I know that when I have removed/commented out the lines regarding ssh it no longer works. As an aside, it's always seemed odd to me that it does that considering that it is commented with something to the effect of "wrapping ssh is not usually a good idea but here's how you do it." Not sure if that's the problem or not. If you run the command sockstat, does it show sshd as listening on port 22? -Christopher Corayer Information Services ADE Technologies 77 Rowe Street Newton, MA 02466 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
