I ran into this same problem. The issue is the RHEL5 init script for sshd; when asked to "stop", it runs killproc on sshd (the command string). This kills both the private and public SSH daemons. I modified the RHEL script to instead call 'killproc -p' on the PID, not the command name: > diff /tmp/ext_sshd /etc/init.d/sshd 30,31c30 < PID_FILE=/var/run/ext_sshd.pid < OPTIONS='-f /etc/ssh/external_sshd_config' - --- > PID_FILE=/var/run/sshd.pid 124,125c123,124 < if [ -f $PID_FILE ]; then < killproc -p $PID_FILE - --- > if [ -n "`pidfileofproc $SSHD`" ] ; then > killproc $SSHD - -- Scott M.

RHEL5 Base Linux Image Creation
I'm attempting to create a base Linux image and keep getting stuck in the same spot. The image is capturing properly, but when Linux is going through post load, something breaks ssh. I don't understand why "/etc/init.d/ext_sshd stop" would halt ssh on the private interface?!? 2010-07-14 09:21:30|28645|68:72|reload|esxthin.pm:load(607)|going to sleep 5 seconds, waiting for computer to start SSH.

Linux Image
I've read through much of the mailing lists and found
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/VCL/Create+a+Linux+Base+Image
I've installed:
1) webnode
2) managementnode, having managementnode.id=1,
installpath=/usr/local/vclimages
3) vmnode1 (VMWare SErver 1.0.10), having computer,id=1
I modeled after
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/VCL/Create+a+Linux+Base+Imagedid
a bunch of inserts.
Instead of getting logs on vmwarelinux, I've got
"|21106|1:9|image| 2010-05-10
14:23:54|21106|1:9|image|image.pm:reservation_failed(390)|winxp-base1-v0
image creation failed" on vcld.log
The ssh from the managementnode to vmnode1 seem to be working, I saw
"currentimage.txt" in the /root/. It contains references to winxp-base1-v0.
I'm still trying to get pass by
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/VCL/Create+a+Linux+Base+Image
Thanks
