Mr. Net Llama, have you thought about using tinyURL? These links are quite a mouseful. I must be missing something obvious, (typically I am) aren't the above sshd messages? IIRC, I've seen utterances about this on one of the redhat list's. This is a feature/bug put in by the ssh developers. This is a google link I found that might help also. http://tinyurl.com/m25z _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
