Help Please

[Nick R]

Running Redhat 6.1 and stable for quite some time. Also running Apache
1.3.9 and PMFireWall 1.1.3.

I installed SSH 2.2.0-2 the other day and received the following response:
Assuming RedHat Linux compatible and trying to configure...
service sshd does not support chkconfig
Configuration seems to have failed. You might be running other than RedHat.
Please edit configuration files by hand.
Please make sure you haven't specified sshd in /etc/rc.d/rc.local

If you already have sshd running, you should restart it or reboot.
Configuration done.

This was done with the rpm install and I cannot reinstall it:
rpm -e ssh-commercial-server-2.2.0-2.i386.rpm
error: package ssh-commercial-server-2.2.0-2.i386.rpm is not installed

Whilst afterwards, executing:rpm --install
ssh-commercial-server-2.2.0-2.i386.rpm
Gives:
package ssh-commercial-server-2.2.0-2 is already installed

sshd was not running during installation, as it was not previously
installed. This is a home server BTW, fully inconjunction with the license.
The main problem now is that PMFireWall keeps losing something (ie, I have
to keep restarting it because it can no longer masquerade) and Apache has
lost functionality on user's cgi-bin directories (calling a user's cgi-bin
script either displays a listing of the script or bad filename), although
the default cgi-bin is working fine.

Any insight to what is going on here would be a great help.

Try this :

rpm -e ssh-commercial-server-2.2.0-2

I have found that running `rpm --rebuilddb' from time to time keeps the
rpm database from getting confused.
