I've posed this question before and received several responses. I tried them and am still getting the failure to bind to port 22 stuff. I am running 1.2.22 on Solaris 2.5.1. I have entered the ssh info in both /etc/services and /etc/initd.conf. As a result of all this, I cannot telnet or ftp, etc to this box. Most inconvenient. At reboot, I am getting an the following error: Mar 24 11:37:43 bugs sshd[764]: fatal: Bind to port 22 failed: Transport endpoint is not connected. Huh? To what? from where? Has anyone seen this before? Needless to say the daemon is not starting up and I cannot start it manually. Any help would be appreciated.
