dear larry thanks a lot for your answer; I don't understand very well your suggestion:
I wrote: -$ nedit .ssh/known_hosts - -here I canceled lines rlative to cygwin machine and tried again: - -$ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] -ssh: connect to host ************ port 22: Connection timed out -$ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] -ssh: connect to host ************ port 22: Connection timed out -$ - -Please, have you got any idea??? You answered: "Is sshd still running? If you were running it in debug mode, it won't be now. Restart it. If it is running, I suggest stopping it and adding debug flags (-d -d -d) to the sshd service and restarting. This will generate debug information in the log that should be helpful." -Yes sshd was running(i also tried today) I do not understand te secon suggestion(I'm not an expert): how can I know I'm running sshd in debug mode? how do I add debug flags to the service? Anyway i got some debug info in another way(-v flag): here I try ssh from cygwin machine to itself: ssh -v localhost OpenSSH_4.0p1, OpenSSL 0.9.7f 22 mar 2005 debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh_config debug1: Connecting to localhost [127.0.0.1] port 22. debug1: Connection established. debug1: identity file /home/user/.ssh/identity type -1 debug1: identity file /home/user/.ssh/id_rsa type -1 debug1: identity file /home/user/.ssh/id_dsa type -1 debug1: Remote protocol version 1.99, remote software version OpenSSH_4.0 debug1: match: OpenSSH_4.0 pat OpenSSH* debug1: Enabling compatibility mode for protocol 2.0 debug1: Local version string SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_4.0 debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT sent debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT received debug1: kex: server->client aes128-cbc hmac-md5 none debug1: kex: client->server aes128-cbc hmac-md5 none debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST(1024<1024<8192) sent debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_GROUP debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_INIT sent debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REPLY debug1: Host 'localhost' is known and matches the RSA host key. debug1: Found key in /home/user/.ssh/known_hosts:2 debug1: ssh_rsa_verify: signature correct debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS sent debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS received debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_REQUEST sent debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT received debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey, password,keyboard-interactive debug1: Next authentication method: publickey debug1: Trying private key: /home/user/.ssh/identity debug1: Trying private key: /home/user/.ssh/id_rsa debug1: Trying private key: /home/user/.ssh/id_dsa debug1: Next authentication method: keyboard-interactive debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey, password,keyboard-interactive debug1: Next authentication method: password [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: debug1: Authentication succeeded (password). debug1: channel 0: new [client-session] debug1: Entering interactive session.

Last login: **************** from ************* what do you think? why ssh does not work fine as server on CM? ssh works fine on LM both as client that as server (I proved it several times with other LM). other LM can't connect to CM via ssh too. Of course i can give other information if you need it. thans again best regards giuseppe ____________________________________________________________ 6X velocizzare la tua navigazione a 56k? 6X Web Accelerator di Libero!
