ssh gets me rlogin

After installing GOLDQPK11i_B.11.11.0406 (the June '04 patch bundle) ssh seems to be calling rlogin somewhere along the way. chatr gives a warning about updating my linker, but I'm not sure which patch would do this.

# ssh localhost

Try doing a:

# whence ssh

This will show the exact thing that is executed. You might have an alias for ssh set up somewhere. Whence will show the alias, 'which' will only show where in your path the executable is.

A quick example:

# which mv
/usr/bin/mv

# whence mv
mv -i

I have an alias for mv to do an 'mv -i'.

I'm not sure what exactly broke, but here's the rest of the story:

It turns out apache wouldn't start with ssl enabled (something we tried after I posted this). This led us to thinking that ssl was the problem.

Turns out that upgrading Secure_Shell (and then apache) did the trick.

I must say, I didn't think this was the issue because we had used the bundle and this is exactly the kind of thing it's supposed to prevent. Oh well.

So, I had already tried both of your suggestions, but hadn't included them.

As per above reply, upgrading ssl solved my problem. I'm not sure what was broken, but this made it better.
