Problem with SSHd [Still Prob]

[Oroshi]

Hello,

 

I installed Gentoo 2005.1 two days ago, but i am still unabled to access to SSH via remote... my IP is static, i went through the sshd_config in /etc/ssh/.

 

but i am still having problem with ssh, when i login and for short time and the message alert said: "Network Error: Software caused connection abort" so i try to re-ssh. and the message apeared "Network error: connection refused".

 

I checked my chmod on /var/empty it is 644 and /var/run is 755. also own is root root.

i also check my sshd passwd from /etc/passwd

 

Code:

sshd:x:22:22:sshd:/dev/null:/bin/false

 

it all match, but i am still having problems. I also re-emerge ssh - but still the same. and I have restart my ssh

 

Code:

# /etc/init.d/sshd restart

stop and start all ok. but same problem :(

 

any solution?? please get back to me. coz i really need to use remote ssh heh.

 

thanks

Check the /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny ..

[Oroshi]

Ah okies thanks anywab :)are you going

 

i just installed the iptables

 

Code:

# iptables -nL
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

 

about the /etc/host.allow and /etc/host.deny isn't in the /etc :(

[Oroshi]

SOLVED the problem so far

 

I went to /etc/hosts

 

and i added my laptop's IP and it works.

[anyweb]

/etc/host.allow

[Oroshi]

/etc/host.allow

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

no. just /etc/hosts

 

but the problem isn't solve :( it booted me off with software cause connection abort.. the /etc/host.allow & /etc/host.deny isn't there. do i have to create one?

[anyweb]

shoudl be /etc/hosts.allow
