Hi, could someone please help me? I am trying to start sshd. What am I =
doing wrong? To create a hostkey, I type this:
'ssh-keygen -b 1024 -f /etc/ssh_host_key -N example'.
Is there anything else needed to start sshd? I get this output:
Generating RSA keys: Key generation complete.
Your identification has been saved in /etc/ssh_host_key.
Your public key has been saved in /etc/ssh_host_key.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
82:59:c5:a8:0b:2d:05:d6:1b:6b:c6:85:a3:24:fc:b6
ro...@user.com (edited, not real FQDN
)
I then type:
'/usr/bin/sshd'
and i get:
error: Could not load host key: /etc/ssh_host_key: Bad file descriptor
Disabling protocol version 1
error: Could not load DSA host key: /etc/ssh_host_dsa_key
Disabling protocol version 2
sshd: no hostkeys available -- exiting.
sshd: no hostkeys available -- exiting.
What more is necessary? I remember when I started ssh on another machine running 1.4.x, this is all I had to do. Or perhaps I've forgotten a step?
