 Hello

 I have serveral SNF installed, Great Product!  I have run into a

 connection. On this box the sshd will not let me log in??  All other 
 boxes which are using a nic for a internet connection works great.  
 One other thing I noticed, is that when I try to ssh to the box, this 
 will activate the modem??  This seems to point at a routing problem.  


It's probably trying reverse dns lookup on your ip address. Make sure 
that it can resolve your ip to a hostname without trying external dns. 
Like hosts files

 Why does the ssh traffic trigger the dialer??  The error message I get 
 is as follows: 


 [jtwatson@Smokey jtwatson]$ ssh 192.168.1.10
 ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host

You should be able to do it (somehow) from the web interface (can't 
remember, haven't needed it for a while), but check your:
-/etc/hosts.allow
-/etc/ssh/sshd_config


 [jtwatson@Smokey jtwatson]$

 Also, the command will hang until the modem connection is complete.

 Thanks,

 Joseph
