Re: why does 'ssh-keygen -t dsa' cause a system reboot?
while trying to get this key-pair authentication system going, i noticed something pretty strange. for some reason when i run 'ssh-keygen -t rsa' my system reboots. Every time? How about when you do a long compile? (build a kernel or make world) If it is not every time, and the same thing happens sometimes during a long build, I suspect hardware problems. (probably memory) If it is only ssh-keygen, and it is every single time... hmm. Maybe a corrupted ssh-keygen binary, or libcrypto or libc? If this is a fresh install from a CD, you might try re-installing (upgrading) the bin and crypto distributions. _ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
