Hi, At my site we are running ssh ver. 2.0.12 on Solaris 2.5.1. We do passwd aging and when a user's passwd is expired, ssh doesn't not know how to respond when the system automatically tries to force the user to change their passwd. On a Solaris system here is how a normal telnet session occurs with a forced passwd change: login: jjrepik Password: Choose a new password. Enter login password: New password: Re-enter new password: Last login: Fri Apr 23 16:07:43 from localhost Sun Microsystems Inc. SunOS 5.5.1 Generic May 1996 You have new mail. % With ssh, the connection receives an error and it is unable to make a connection. Here is the output from that attempt: % ssh -v machine Development-time debugging not compiled in.
