Greetings - I am using SSH1/SSH2 (ssh-2.2.0) on an Alpha running Tru64 4.0F. The system is runing tcp-wrappers (I did compile ssh for wrapper support), NIS+ amd C2 Security. SSH out to other machines works beautifully. I looked in the FAQ and - I already have: RequireReverseMapping no - my wrappers do work ok without ssh - the client host is included in the wrappers' /etc/hosts.allow file When I try to SSH from another host I get the following: ssh -v <server> debug: hostname is '<server>'. debug: Unable to open /disk9/georged/.ssh2/ssh2_config debug: connecting to <server>... debug: entering event loop debug: ssh_client_wrap: creating transport protocol debug: SshAuthMethodClient/sshauthmethodc.c:104: Added "publickey" to usable methods. debug: SshAuthMethodClient/sshauthmethodc.c:104: Added "password" to usable methods. debug: Ssh2Client/sshclient.c:1104: creating userauth protocol debug: Ssh2Common/sshcommon.c:486: local ip = 150.144.30.57, local port = 2309 debug: Ssh2Common/sshcommon.c:488: remote ip = 150.144.29.75, remote port = 22 debug: SshConnection/sshconn.c:1853: Wrapping... debug: Ssh2Transport/trcommon.c:593: Remote version: SSH-2.0-2.2.0 SSH Secure Shell (non-commercial) debug: Ssh2Transport/trcommon.c:1066: c_to_s: cipher 3des-cbc, mac hmac-sha1, compression none debug: Ssh2Transport/trcommon.c:1069: s_to_c: cipher 3des-cbc, mac hmac-sha1, compression none debug: Ssh2Client/sshclient.c:399: Host key found from database. debug: Ssh2Common/sshcommon.c:296: Received SSH_CROSS_STARTUP packet from connection protocol. debug: Ssh2Common/sshcommon.c:346: Received SSH_CROSS_ALGORITHMS packet from connection protocol. debug: Unable to open /disk9/georged/.ssh2/identification debug: Ssh2AuthClient/sshauthc.c:308: Method 'publickey' disabled. debug: Ssh2AuthPasswdClient/authc-passwd.c:82: Starting password query... georged's password: debug: Ssh2AuthPasswdClient/authc-passwd.c:82: Starting password query... georged's password: debug: Ssh2AuthPasswdClient/authc-passwd.c:82: Starting password query... georged's password: debug: Ssh2Common/sshcommon.c:132: DISCONNECT received: No further authentication methods available. warning: Authentication failed. debug: Ssh2/ssh2.c:77: locally_generated = TRUE Disconnected; no more authentication methods available (No further authentication methods available.). debug: uninitializing event loop Any help would be greatly appreciated.
