But when I've run into similar problems recently, it's usually because one of the clients is using an older ( < v2) of the protocol. At some point back in fBSD 5.x support for the less-secure v1 ssh protocol became disabled by default. Try editing /etc/ssh/sshd_config and look for a "Protocol" option. Try setting it to "Protocol 1,2" However, the level one supposedly has some security holes, and you might not want to use it over the public Internet. I just use it with my stupid windoze client that only does level one, to connect over our own LAN, so I don't care. -Wayne
