Hello All,

        I recently configured a Red Hat 8.0 system and I am running into some   
trouble with connecting to the system via SSH.

        When I run nmap against the machine I find out that port 22 is open and   
listening. The SSH configuration file is all default, save for the   
addition of users that are allowed to access the system.

        When I run PuTTy to connect to the server, I receive nothing. Sometimes   
PuTTy dies, sometimes it just sits there waiting for me to kill it. When   
I connect to the server via ssh on the other server I receive the   
following error message on the screen:

"ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host"

        I am unfamiliar with why this message would be showing up. The system   
has nothing configured to deny such connections. I have given this a go   
with and without my ipchains rules in place. I believe that this is   
directly related to something with the way ssh is configured in Red Hat   
8.0.

        Thanks for any assistance you can give. 

Regards,
