Shalom,

Don't run a compiled version of ssh.

http://software.hp.com
search for
secure shell

This is ssh

download the depot and do an install. Everything will work. Supported by HP

Hi Andrew,

first be sure to have SSH software depot downloaded by HP sites. If all is ok then please insert

set -x

on top of /sbin/init.d/secsh script and then post here the output of the following command:

/sbin/init.d/secsh start

Best regards,
Fabio

Oh, to have a clear description of exactly
what you did and what happened when you did
it...

> have rebuilt system onto new hardware from
> ignite image.

So, is this new system replacing the old
system, or do they coexist? Does it have the
same name and address as the old system? Is
SSH the only networky thing which doesn't
work properly?

Which "open ssh"?

> [...] run startup script [...]

Which "startup script"?

> [...] says that all is started successfully
> [...]

What, exactly, did you do, and what, exactly,
happened when you did it? That new-fangled
copy+paste stuff can be useful in a situation
like this.

> [...] yet no deamon running.

And you know this how?

And so on...

suggest that you start sshd from the command line with multiple -d options, as in

/usr/local/sbin/sshd -ddd -p

and try to connect using

ssd -vvv -p

this will start a non-daemon sshd process and verbose output, and the ssh process will produce verbose output as well. reviewing the output of the above may point you in the right direction.

Thanks for the help guys but i have managed to resolve.
it was a patch i needed i managed to trace to error to the fact that i needed to install patch no PHCO_35743 which is the latest stable Lidc cumulative patch and dependencys and all is now happy in this ssh camp.
thanks to those who tried to help.
