I would try one of two things. Try starting sshd and then tail /var/log/messages to see what the error is. You should be able to walk even a non-computer user through these commands. Or, if the machine has a network connection have the user try starting sshd and then type the following # tail /var/log/messages | mail -s logs [EMAIL PROTECTED] Then just wait for the email to arrive which may provide you with additional insight. At least this way you may get a bit more information as to what is causing sshd to fail. /jft -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
