Geets!
I'm working with ssh v2.0.13 on RedHat 6.1. I've having a problem whereby
I can run it as a daemon, and successfully connect from a remote host, but
if I run it in inetd, I get the following on the client:
Disconnected; protocol error (Protocol error: packet too long: 2132309775.).
and from the server logs:
Jan 25 00:39:41 kronos sshd2[1071]: connection from "x.x.x.x"
Jan 25 00:39:41 kronos sshd2[1071]: Daemon is running.
Jan 25 00:39:56 kronos sshd2[1071]: User jearle, coming from
remote.host.ca, authenticated.
Jan 25 00:39:56 kronos sshd2[1071]: Remote host disconnected: Protocol
error: packet too long: 2132309775.
Jan 25 00:39:56 kronos sshd2[1071]: Protocol error: 'Protocol error: packet
too long: 2132309775.'
I though maybe my passphrase was too long (20 chars) so I cut it down to
12; same problem. Odd thing is, I had it working through inetd (albeit
sporadically) earlier today. I had one ssh session up and running, but
when I tried to get a second one going, no dice. It never worked after that.
I compiled 2.0.13 9thinking maybe there was something wrong with it) on
another box (running redhat 5.1) and it can take ssh connections from other
remote hosts without hiccup. The config files are the same between the two
ssh server boxes.
Ideas?
Cheers!
Jon
