RE: Problems with sshd on FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE

2006-05-31 Thread Tamouh H.
 
Curiously, I just restarted sshd, and now things are working again.  
Has anybody ever seen this before?

-Andy.

We had problems as well with FreeBSD 4.11 and sshd service hanging or breaking 
because of an OPENSSL lib which are required to run OpenSSH. Since then we 
moved out of 4.11 to 5.x

You may have an old key on the system you are ssh'ing to the downgraded 
server.  Clear your ssh keys and try it again.

Hello,

For reasons that I don't want to go into here, I have recently
downgraded my principal FreeBSD server from 6.1 to 4.11-RELEASE. I
did this by installing a fresh copy of FreeBSD 4.11 on a clean HD,
and then I rsync'd all of my data over.

Everything has been working fine, until I tried to SSH to the box
this afternoon. While everything was working fine this morning, now
sshd hangs up immediately on all clients that attempt to connect. In / 
var/log/messages, I see errors like this for every ssh connection

attempt:

May 31 15:21:06 redefine sshd[8543]: error: ssh_dss_sign: sign failed
May 31 15:21:06 redefine sshd[8543]: fatal: mm_answer_sign: key_sign
failed

Google hasn't enlightened me at all. This was *just* working a few
hours ago, and now, nada. Does anyone on this list have any ideas?

Thanks,
-Andy Reitz.
