Greetings again: I have sshd working again after adding an entry in my firewall/router's /etc/hosts.allow file, but I am rather concerned that sshd included tcp_wrappers without alerting users that are upgrading software via apt or dselect! Unless I missed something, I always read all the notifications during each Woody upgrade.
My question now is this: do I need to make these hosts_allow entries into each of my linux computers? I still find it very odd that all the other computers were able to connect to my firewall/router as it was, and only my Woody box was banned from connecting. The only other thing that might add to the syndrome is that I have a user logged (ssh) into my box via the router for several weeks compiling kde3. shrug [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----original msg---- Greetings: I am unable to connect to my cable firewall/router from my desktop box suddenly. I have gone so far as to wipe out my known_hosts file from my .ssh directory, but this still gives me the same error. What is unusual is that I can ssh to any of the other computers on my lan, *then* ssh to my router without difficulty. What did I do wrong? Any help gleefully excepted. I am running woody on both boxes, and updated them an hour ago. I also ran dpkg-reconfigure for ssh on the router just in case I had an update and entered a wrong value.
