I am trying to use ssh 1.2.27 (compiled from source) under RedHat 6.2
x86. I am unable to make a connection. The debug option gives this:
[hiranya@(none) hiranya]$ ssh -v -l hiranya fury.princeton.edu
SSH Version 1.2.27 [i686-unknown-linux], protocol version 1.5.
Standard version. Does not use RSAREF.
(none): Reading configuration data /etc/ssh_config
(none): ssh_connect: getuid 500 geteuid 0 anon 0
(none): Connecting to fury.princeton.edu [128.112.24.34] port 22.
(none): Allocated local port 1023.
After a while I get a message saying connect: Connection timed out
Other facts that may be relevant:
1. I am connecting through a DSL line (Bell Atlantic Infospeed) using
PPPoE.
2. telnet,ftp,http,ping,all work correctly.
3. The remote server uses ssh1 protocol:
SSH Version 1.2.26 [sparc-sun-solaris2.6], protocol version 1.5.
Standard version. Does not use RSAREF.
4. I have also tried ssh1.2.26(wouldn't compile), and ssh1.2.30 (same
problem as above).
5. In /var/log/messages, while the above is occurring, I get errors like:
Aug 31 17:12:29 (none) kernel: Packet log: input DENY ppp0 PROTO=6
128.112.24.34:22 141.150.201.224:1023 L=60 S=0x00 I=50529 F=0x4000 T=51

(#2)
I am a newbie. Please help!
