Thanks! That did the trick! Now there was an entry about tcp wrapper
denying access in /var/log/messages. Remerging open-ssh with USE="-
tcpd"
solved the problem.
I will look into tcpd configuration but I don't think I even need
it on
that machine.
I stumbled across use of tcp wrapper & SSH recently - I think another
poster here mentioned DenyHosts, and tcp wrapper is needed for this.
http://denyhosts.sourceforge.net/
If I look at my auth logs on 3 different systems I see thousands of
failed ssh attempts, so DenyHosts would be quite worthwhile here, I
think.
