Hi All,
I've been having some weird problems with ssh. I can connect to our
server (RH 7.1) but when I try to connect to another Debian box on the
network (PPC) I get the following message:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ssh -l andrew.dixon stiq
ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
I get the same error when I try on a different PPC Deb box as well.
I CAN log into the PPC Deb box from the redhat server and I also CAN log
into my Debian box from the server.
Could this be a problem with reverse name lookups? We're using M$ as
our DHCP and primary DNS and it works about as well as you'd expect it
to work (read: it sucks).
Any hints, tips, pointers, or other wisdom would be greatly appreciated.
I had that problem when a ssh server was down. Did you try telneting to see
if ssh answers? Can you access that server form other machine(via ssh)?
I don't think it's a DNS problem, but if you can add the hostname to
/etc/hosts, It will get faster (at the beginning).
