I started getting this today, with a fresh CVSup (from 4.0-R to
4.1-S) on the system running sshd. Interestingly enough, using a 4.1-S
system that was about two weeks old as a client would exhibit this
problem when logging into the updated server; as soon as I upgraded the
client machine to 4.1-S (at noon today, 24-Sep) the problems went away.
I am, however, still left with one machine that won't log into the server
anymore... an OpenVMS box running FISH (SSH v1 only). That produces the
timeout error (and no prompt to enter a password, as it normally
produces).
Tried switching the protocol support (in sshd_config) to 1,2 and just 1,
but to no avail... have had to enable telnet for the time being. :-(
