Take a look at your /etc/ssh/sshd_config file. There's probably something in there that's preventing it from binding to port 22. It's possible that you have configured it to bind to another port?
Posting your sshd_config here would certainly help. -- Jordan Klein ~ Beware of dragons [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ for you are crunchy Solaris / OpenBSD / Linux Admin ~ and go well with ketchup ----- Original Message ----- From: "GV" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <Undisclosed.Recipients :> Cc: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, May 10, 2005 2:07 PM Subject: sshd and port 22 > Hi there, > > Suddenly I have a strange situation.
