I often find it more useful to temporarily run a second sshd on an alternate port, with stderr directed to the console and sshd in no-detach and debug mode. Try the following: $ sshd -d -d -d -e -D -p 222 Then watch the output as you try to connect on that port $ sshd myhost -p 222 If you'd like, you can redirect the output to a file, too, but I find that screen(1)'s scrollback usually is enough for me. -- o--------------------------{ Will Maier }--------------------------o | jabber:..wcmaier@jabber.ccc.de | email:..........wcmaier@ml1.net | | \.........wcmaier@cae.wisc.edu | \..........wcmaier@cae.wisc.edu | *------------------[ BSD Unix: Live Free or Die ]------------------*
