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:
