Hi Vincent: I'm sure that the /etc/host_rsa_key wasn't there after the rpm installation. I had just installed the openssh-server rpm and tried to connect. On the client side I got an error so I tailed /var/log/messages. It complained that the host key was not available. Checking /etc/ confirmed this. I'll be re-running this installation on a more up-to-date box and will try to confirm if this was just some glitch with my particular setup. Thanks, Kwan
