Assuming you can connect to another port, you can do something like this to run sshd on 2222, tracing both parent and child sshds: $ sudo strace -f /usr/sbin/sshd -De -ologlevel=fatal -p 2222 (note that the trace may contain sensitive information so treat it with caution) -- Darren Tucker (dtucker at dtucker.net) GPG key 11EAA6FA / A86E 3E07 5B19 5880 E860 37F4 9357 ECEF 11EA A6FA Good judgement comes with experience.
