Hi  

the sshd.service is enabled and is shown starting at the bottom of
"boot.log" but "secure" show it failing to bind to the PC IP address !

/var/log/secure shows it can't bind:-

> linuxmail sshd[804]: error: Bind to port 22 on 192.168.191.9 failed: Cannot 
> assign requested address.
> linuxmail sshd[804]: fatal: Cannot bind any address.

/var/log/messages shows it exiting ?:- 

> linuxmail systemd[1]: sshd.service: main process exited, code=exited, 
> status=255
> linuxmail systemd[1]: Unit sshd.service entered failed state.

Yet when I login I can restart sshd.service and it will bind to port 22 on 
192.168.191.9 and keeps running.

No firewall is running and selinux is in permissive mode 
It is not the fastest machine Atlon 1200+ 1GB RAM  
Kernel 3.4.0-1.fc17.i686 #1 SMP 

Its my backup server and I need sshd running if it was remote I would be 
scuppered ! 

Why is it failing to bind to the IP address on startup ?
