What does ListenAddress contain? I would guess you have a single ListenAddress :: which will, as of current openssh, only listen on IPv6. Comment that out and you should be back in business. See: https://openindiana.org/pipermail/openindiana-discuss/2024-October/027031.html As an aside, I would recommend the use of "PermitRootLogin prohibit-password" - which happens to be the default - which enables key-based access but not password-based. > I've done these things in this order: > > add PermitRootLogin yes to authentication section of /ssh/sshd_config > > svcadm restart ssh > > Note: Also tried svcadm disable ssh > svcadm enable -rst ssh > > But when tried from remote host I get: > > root # ssh -vv root@oi > OpenSSH_8.9p1 Ubuntu-3ubuntu0.10, OpenSSL 3.0.2 15 Mar 2022 > debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config > debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 21: Applying options for * > debug2: resolving "oi" port 22 > debug1: Connecting to oi [192.168.1.220] port 22. > debug1: connect to address 192.168.1.220 port 22: Connection refused > ssh: connect to host oi port 22: Connection refused > > > However logged in as my user on OI I can run: > > ssh root@localhost and it works as expected. > > What am I missing? > > > _______________________________________________ > openindiana-discuss mailing list > [email protected] > https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss > -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
