Thats' ok Abe. what I do with ssh related problems is to start the sshd process manually in a term with the -d flag. This put sshd in the debug mode and a buch of stuff gets spit out to the term that never makes in into the logs. You will first need to stop the normal process with service sshd stop current sessions will not be affected. this is only good for one session and sshd will exit after the session is terminated. Don't forget to restart sshd service sshd start You can also edit /etc/sshd_config and set the loglevel to DEBUG? replacing ? with 1,2,or 3 from the sshd man page: LogLevel Gives the verbosity level that is used when logging messages from sshd. The possible values are: QUIET, FATAL, ERROR, INFO, VER BOSE, DEBUG, DEBUG1, DEBUG2 and DEBUG3. The default is INFO. DEBUG and DEBUG1 are equivalent. DEBUG2 and DEBUG3 each specify higher levels of debugging output. Logging with a DEBUG level violates the privacy of users and is not recommended. service sshd restart will activate the changes This of course will work for all sessions until you reset the LogLevel and restart sshd. seems like the output gets put in /var/log/secure but it might be /var/log/messages HTH Bret -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
