This is because sshd binds to both IPv4 and IPv6 ports. The IPv4 bind fails, as you will see in syslog, while the IPv6 bind succeeds. Thus sshd keeps on running. If you start two nc's (I don't know any way to do this with one instance), e.g.: nc -4 -l 22 > /tmp/ssh_test4 & nc -6 -l 22 > /tmp/ssh_test6 & and then try starting sshd, you should see it quit. _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
