My RH 7.0, 7.3 and 9.0 systems all contain code in /etc/init.d/sshd to
generate all three keys if they don't exist.  For some reason yours
isn't creating the v1 key.  Run the script with sh -x and you should be
able to figure out why not.

3.1p1 is fine; that's what I'm running on rh7.0 and 7.3 (redhat's
latest updates from mirror.aarnet.edu.au).

OK, so you can ping coo from coo, I'd expect that.

So you've successfully logged in to coo from coo, but you said earlier
that:

> coo : slogin coo  logs in to posh

This is obviously not the case.  You've just logged in to coo from coo.

and you can still ping coo from coo.

and posh from coo.

There's nothing unusual in any of this.
