Hello, I've to install the sshd over a slow satelit connection on many SCO servers. The transmissions of the data works correct but if I want to start the sshd with the rsh comand: rsh host '/etc/rc2.d/S20sshd start' and the following S20sshd script: ###################################################### if [ ! -f /etc/ssh/ssh_keygen ] then echo "Generating public and private RSA keys in " echo "\t/etc/ssh/ssh_keygen and /etc/ssh/ssh_keygen.pub...\c" /usr/local/bin/ssh-keygen -b 1024 -f /etc/ssh/ssh_keygen -N '' /usr/local/bin/ssh-keygen -d -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key -N "" retcode=$? if [ $retcode -ne 0 ] then echo "Failed, /usr/local/bin/ssh-keygen returned: \c" echo "$retcode" else echo "Ok" fi fi echo "Starting SSH daemon V. 2.1.1p3:" /usr/local/bin/sshd -h /etc/ssh/ssh_keygen || return=$rc_failed ######################################################################## The rsh command didn't comes back and didn't time out. Did anybody else get the same problem? If I try to start the sshd direct with: rsh host '/usr/local/bin/sshd -h /etc/ssh/ssh_keygen' I get the same problem. thanks for help B.
