I am running sshd on a RedHat Linux 7.1 (with the latest upgrades
for all openssh* rpms) Dell computer, but cannot seem to
connect to it:
[prompt]$ ssh machine-name.umn.edu
Secure connection to machine-name.umn.edu refused.
In debug mode:
[prompt]$ ssh machine-name.umn.edu -v
OpenSSH_2.9p2, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090600f

[two more times, then...]
Secure connection to giverny.umn.edu refused.
The machine I'm trying to connect to seems to be running sshd:
[prompt]$ ps -elf | grep sshd
140 S root 1354 1 0 69 0 - 662 do_sel 14:24 ?
00:00:00
and it can connect to other machines without problems.
Oddly, in /etc/xinetd.d/, there are many services, but ssh is not among
them.
[prompt]$ cd /etc/xinetd.d; ls
amanda daytime finger klogin rexec telnet

service shell
{
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
log_on_success += USERID
log_on_failure += USERID
server = /usr/sbin/in.rshd
disable = yes
}
I tried to make a similar entry as root for ssh, using /usr/sbin/sshd
as the server (since there does not appear to be a /usr/sbin/in.sshd),
and set disable = no, but that didn't work.
The file /etc/ssh/sshd_config is exactly as in the following version:
# $OpenBSD: sshd_config,v 1.38 2001/04/15 21:41:29 deraadt Exp $
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? or what I need to install?
Thanks very much,
Kevin Silverstein
