Hello everyone. I am having a bit of trouble getting openssh to accept 
connections. Can anyone help by either direct comment or either pointing me 
where to look for additional information? So far I have installed sshd on 
other RedHat machines without issues. But since I have began using LM7.1 I 
have been running into this error message:

"ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
"

Things I have done so far include:

 - checked /etc/inetd.conf for appropriate uncommented entries for sshd
 - checked /etc/hosts.deny to ensure proper clearance for my hosts
 - checked /etc/ssh/sshd_config for appropiate entry in the "ListenAddress"
    field.

Is there anything I am missing? Can someone please help? Thanks sooo much!

Here is some additional info below regarding the system and what I have on it:

Linux 2.2.15-4mdksecure #1 SMP Wed May 10 14:16:48 CEST 2000 i686 unknown
