hi! 
thanks for your suggestions. i checked the version and it was the latest released. 
then i check the ssh_config and noticed all options from host and below were out 
commented. fixed that too, tested n didnt work. then i tried with new keygen to update 
rsa1 , rsa and dsa keys. 
ssh-keygen -t rsa1 -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key -N ""
ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key -N ""
ssh-keygen -t dsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key -N ""

still not working. but i WILL MAKE IT WORK someday !  :)
thanks again
