Hi,

I have a Sun box (E420R) with a very minimum Solaris 8 installation. I am compiling 
the 1.2.27 ssh on another Solaris 8 host and ftping the binaries over. I use 
ssh-keygen to create keys in /etc. The key exists and I am happy with the format of 
the file, (it is consistent with other working hosts). My problem is that the sshd 
cannot find the /etc/ssh_host_key whether I point to it (using -h) or not. The file 
_does_exist. 

What the hell am I doing wrong?

Sample run:

## ROOT ## taylor # sshd -d  -h /etc/ssh_host_keydebug: sshd version 1.2.27 
[sparc-sun-solaris2.8]Could not load host key: /etc/ssh_host_keyfatal: Please check 
that you have sufficient permissions and the file exists.## ROOT ## taylor # ls -al 
/etc/ssh_host_key-rw-------   1 root     other        526 Jun 28 16:21 
/etc/ssh_host_key


Shane.
