This is easily checked by running 'sshd -?' and looking at the version. E.g. sshd: unknown option -- ? OpenSSH_6.7, OpenSSL 1.0.1g 7 Apr 2014 [...] 2) You are running the correct version of sshd but it has been configured to use the wrong config path. You can check this by running 'sshd -rddd' and looking for the lines like this: debug2: load_server_config: filename /etc/ssh/sshd_config 3) You are running the correct version of sshd and it is finding the correct configuration file, but it has bad key paths in it. This will also be apparent from the debug output. E.g. debug3: /etc/ssh/sshd_config:22 setting HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key Hope this helps. -d _______________________________________________ openssh-unix-dev mailing list openssh-unix-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-unix-dev
