Based on the above, I can think of two things that might be at play here. One is that the ip address of the remote host has changed and you are connecting to the wrong host (wild ass guess). Second is your remote host has been compromised and the cracker has modified sshd configuration or has installed their own sshd. -- Shrike-list mailing list Shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/shrike-list
