try starting sshd in debug mode. service sshd stop sshd -d -d then from the remote box try ssh -l root -v B you should now get lots of debug info from both sides. btw the sshd -d will stop after each loging attempt and you will have to run it again to initiate another test. If this machine is used by others that are expecting the service to be there, you can set the loglevel to DEBUG[123] and get the same results. BTW you did restart the server after any moodifications to sshd_config right?
