These last two seem like the problem; I'm not sure how they could be related to public-key authentication (although sshd is certainly very confused one way or another). Could you run an sshd with the -ddd command-line option (possibly on a separate port) and post the debug log from that? Does anyone on debian-hurd recognise this problem? Does it simply mean that the tty translator is broken (perhaps by the previous tcgetattr failure)? -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
