Since I think 4.0 was the first to include OpenSSH as a standard part of the system, it may have some odd behaviors. It is certainly an old version of OpenSSH. Have you installed any of the ssh ports? (OpenSSH or SSH)? If so, there is an sshd startup script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d as well as the "standard" SSH startup in the /etc/rc. Please remove any layered ssh from the system to avoid serious confusion down the line. Also, think seriously about upgrading to some recent release. 4.0 is old and a bit rough around the edges. It uses the old RSA stuff if you are a USA_RESIDENT and does not support ssh V2 protocol. R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
