Also in addition to debugging from the client you can run the sshd on a higher numbered port with debugging enabled: sudo /usr/sbin/sshd -d -e -p 2222 and then use: backuuser% ssh -v -p 2222 remotehost to connect. -- -- rouilj John Rouillard System Administrator Renesys Corporation 603-244-9084 (cell) 603-643-9300 x 111 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Achieve unprecedented app performance and reliability What every C/C++ and Fortran developer should know.
