Dear List,

I have a problem using Suse Local Security Checks.
Nessus is not able to log into a SuSE box via ssh.
Manual login (ssh -i my_key <ip>) works. I followed
the instructions for local security checks from the
nessus website (generating keys, putting the on
other boxes, configuring Nessus, etc.).

I took a look at ssh_get_info.nasl and figured out
that the function ssh_login_or_reuse_connection()
returns an error. A deeper analysis showed that the
function ssh_rsa_verify(..) in file ssh_func.inc
fails with the error message
"Server's rsa signature is not valid!"

So my questions is, what causes this error?

I'm using Nessus 2.2.2a and daemon and client are
running on the same computer (which is a SuSE 8.2
with kernel 2.6.10). Nessus is compiled with SSL support.
The box that Nessus should scan is a SuSE 8.2 with
kernel 2.6.2.

Thanks for your help!

Sebastian Vandersee
