I've enabled remote root logins long ago.. and have had no problems with it... but today... I started getting this message:
Received disconnect from 192.168.0.29: 2: Too many authentication failures for root Even when it is the absolute first attempt. I was't able to discern where this message comes from. I guess from one of the ssh configs... but darned if I see it there. grep -rl 'Too many authentication' /etc didn't find it either. Looking at man sshd and man sshd_config... it appears my settings should be working. Somehow the OS thinks there have been multiple attempts at root login that failed... My logs show no such thing. At least `grep ssh /var/adm/messages' gets no hits... would that sort of stuff be somewhere else? Anyone have a guess what might be the problem. I think if it were a bum setting in sshd_config the message, if any at all, would not be what I am seeing. _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
