i'm trying to get sshd working. it's not accepting connections. :/ here is the error message i get. i have a feeling it's the way my hosts.allow/deny files are set up. can anyone give me a hand? ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host my hosts.allow file: in.sshd : ALL 192.168.100. 192.168.1. : ALLOW in.telnetd : LOCAL : ALLOW ~ my hosts.deny file: ALL : ALL EXCEPT localhost : DENY i can telnet to this machine, but not ssh. now i know that i have the hosts.deny folder to deny everything but the localhost, but even when i remove that line it still harrasses me. on the same note, does anyone know any good how-tos on hosts.allow and hosts.deny and thier formats and the like. sorry if this e-mail is greek...i'm getting a T-1 installed and my head is spinning. they just "accidently" pulled the plug on our SCOdb server. argh! matthew sys/net admin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
