But AFAIK the connect call on the server would rather return with an "operation not permitted" instead of hanging forever. > And I know that sshd is running from this: > > bash:~# netstat -putan > tcp6 0 0 :::22 :::* > LISTEN 7778/sshd I guess this is just an excerpt from the output? Otherwise your sshd is listening on ipv6 socket only. When you issue this command after opening the streamdev-client you should see a listening socket on a tcp port above 1024 on the client. On the server you should find a connection attempt most likely in state SYN_SENT. A sniffer might be helpfull to track this one down. At least it could tell you if the SYN packet is actually leaving the server. Good luck, Frank
