I noticed two entries for sshd in the back up menu of LRCFG. I changed the first entry's backup destination back to /dev/cdrom leaving the other entry pointing to the dev/fd0u1680 as its backup destination. Upon rebooting, sshd loaded correctly and now I am able to ssh in from my Windoze machine!
I did not have to add an entry in the hosts.allow file as Guitarlynn suggested. I did not regenerate the keys- I merely used the ones that were originally generated. This means that root.lrp does not have to be backed up after the keys are generated- only the local configuration file of the sshd.lrp. Now that I have conquered the ssh thing (hurrah for this newb!), on to the silent_deny issue! Which will be in the next post from me! ~Doug > > > > I have /usr/sbin/sshd in my ps ax, so as I thought, you are _not_ > > loading the package.
