Can you connect the the sshd using telnet or netcat from the client? If not, then that's your problem. If so, then the problem is more subtle. In the absence of further information, I'd expect a MTU blackhole in one/both directions, since the KEXINIT packet is likely to be the first bit of data sent that is >1KB. You might be able to check this using ping's size and don't-fragment options (make sure you test both the client->server and server->client directions). -d _______________________________________________ openssh-unix-dev mailing list openssh-unix-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-unix-dev
