nslookup and dig tools. So I am confident that name resolution is working.

Ok.


Within the jailed hosts, I have turned off the portmap, syslogd, sendmail,
and inetd daemons and am running only cron and sshd daemons upon start up.

But when I attempt to ssh into one of the jailed hosts, the connection
times out and reports: "Connection closed by 192.168.1.100".

Maybe starting sshd in debug mode could be very helpful.


A partial sockstat reading while the hosts are attempting to connect
shows:
USER     COMMAND    PID   FD PROTO  LOCAL ADDRESS         FOREIGN ADDRESS
sshd     sshd     59613    4 tcp4   192.168.1.100:22      192.168.1.100:2604
sshd     sshd     59613    7 udp4   192.168.1.100:2625    192.168.1.1:53
root     sshd     59612    4 tcp4   192.168.1.100:22      192.168.1.100:2604
cary     ssh      59611    3 tcp4   192.168.1.100:2604    192.168.1.100:22

A quick description of the addresses:
150.252.106.57 - external IP address of host computer, also running
dnscache for external lookups
192.168.1.1 - IP address of internal dnscache for 192.168.x.x addresses
192.168.1.100 - IP address of jail(8)'d host
192.168.53.1 - IP address of jail(8)'d tinydns server host

ssh used with which command? And - using 3 -v's may help get more info, too.


ssh debugging output shows:
[snip initial key-exchange]
debug1: waiting for SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS
debug1: newkeys: mode 0
debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS received
debug1: done: ssh_kex2.
debug1: send SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_REQUEST
debug1: service_accept: ssh-userauth
debug1: got SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT
{and ssh "hangs" here...}

It doesn't hang. If it would hang, it wouldn't tell you that the remote host has closed the connection. Enabling syslog in the jail (you didn't have to enable networking syslog!) and starting sshd in debug mode will give you some important information.


The messages, security, and auth logs under /var/log in the jail'd host
are completly empty.  Under the host machine logs , there is nothing as
well.

This is, because you have disabled syslogd. You should thinking about enabling it but protect it against external access using ipfiler or ipfirewall.


I'm at a loss of what else to trouble shoot.  I'm not subscribed to the
list so if you could Cc: me, I would appreciate it.

Thank you in advance for any help offered!

So long, Jens
