[gentoo-user] Re: SSH won't restart

 However, I think I just found a solution.
 openssh, in some circumstances (I believe to be openssl changing ABI), will 
 not restart as you found. It will only not restart when it's being actively 
 used, so you can't do so will logged in.
 To restart it when your logged out on a remote server is simply a matter of 
 doing this:
 
 # (sleep 15  /etc/init.d/sshd restart) 

Hm?

I don't find this to be true. I often restart sshd by doing exactly
/etc/init.d/sshd restart. While I'm remote logged in via SSH. I find,
that after having done this, new settings/versions are active.

  I've just done this on a remote system and can now happily log back in, 
  and restart ssh without issue.

Key words in some circumstances.

What circumstances? I too have performed updates on several remote
systems via SSH and run /etc/init.d/sshd restart and never had any
problems.

Something like /etc/init.d/sshd test-restart would be nice. It'd allow all of 
us to stop worrying
about a potential restart/lockout issue.
