Problem w/ SSH and Itanium...

[SDVICK]

All, I have a very odd problem.

I have two servers, one PA-RISC, one Itanium both on the same subnet. When I attempt to login to the PA-RISC server, via PuTTY, I have no issue. When I attempt to do the same thing to the Itanium, it prompts for my password, accepts it and then fails w/ the error message: "Server unexpectedly closed network connection".

I stopped and restarted the daemon in debug mode and tried the login but the debug log did not really show anything.

Does anyone know of something that is "weird" about ssh on Itanium that I'm missing?

BTW: Both servers are running HP-UX 11.23.

What version of ssh on the IA server?

Any messages in /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log on IA server ?

[SDVICK]

HP SSH 5.00.013

No (usable) messages in syslog. i.e.:

Jul 18 14:12:00 SERVER_B sshd[8029]: SSH: Server;Ltype: Version;Remote: ###.##.###.##-3414;Protocol: 2.0;Client: PuTTY_Release_0.60
Jul 18 14:12:01 SERVER_B sshd[8029]: Accepted publickey for USERX from ###.##.###.## port 3414 ssh2

I would go with SEP's advise in the thread. downgrade to 4.7..

I have it installed on 11.11 and 11.23 with no issues.

I can install 5.x and test it if you would like ?

Just installed
OpenSSH_5.0p1+sftpfilecontrol-v1.2-hpn13v1, OpenSSL 0.9.7m 23 Feb 2007
HP-UX Secure Shell-A.05.00.025, HP-UX Secure Shell version

on 11.23 IVM

made putty connection with no problems.

What if you ssh not using putty ? e.g. from one ux host to this one ?

Maybe you got a bad install, reinstall ?

Maybe some weird mods to sshd_config ?

[SDVICK]

That did the trick. Thanx.

Sorry about the short reply earlier.

The thread that Kenan posted worked perfectly.

Thanx to all who replied.
