Check /var/log/secure for error messages. If you are trying to ssh in as root (instead of as yourself, then using su), then there is a config line in sshd_config you'll have to change. If available, try a different ssh client. Instead of running sshd as a daemon, run it in debug mode. Run the ssh client in debug mode as well. Somewhere in the noise might be something useful. --kag _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
