I've gone through, what I would call a default installation of SSH 2.3.0,
just to see what kinks that would in-and-of-itself provide. As it it so
happens, it won't work for me. I didn't see any errors, but I'm unable to
establish a connection with the server (even if that connection is
originating from the server itself). I've
(1) installed SSH on AIX 4.3.3 (# configure ; make) (didn't use any options
on the configure command... JUST '# configure'),
(2) added tcp port 22 to /etc/services,
(3) added the following line in the /etc/inetd.conf file:
"ssh2 stream tcp nowait /usr/local/sbin/sshd -i"
(and then restarted inetd),
but when I can't seem to get any connection to the box. Even when I run the
canned script 'quux': "# /usr/local/bin/ssh2 hostname -s quux" instead of it
running the script that echos "fim fam foo" I get "FATEL: Connecting to
hostname failed: Connection Refused." I'm afraid I'm missing some critical
component but don't know what.
It probably goes without saying that I'm unable to establish a connection
from a client machine either. I'll plainly admit that I don't have a firm
grasp of any of this yet, but I'm hopeful that someone might assist me.
thanks.
