Hello everyone,

I upgraded ssh & openssl from :
OpenSSH_3.9p1, OpenSSL 0.9.7a Feb 19 2003

To: OpenSSH_4.3p2, OpenSSL 0.9.8b 04 May

I followed eth00s guide: http://www.eth0.us/sshd

After downloading, recompiling, etc, etc.. I restarted ssh service and got the following error:

CODE

root@server [/usr/local/src/openssh-4.3p2]# /sbin/service sshd restart

Stopping sshd: [ OK ] Starting sshd:/etc/ssh/sshd_config line 72: Unsupported

option GSSAPIAuthentication /etc/ssh/sshd_config line 74: Unsupported option

GSSAPICleanupCredentials [ OK ]

Now ssh service don't start.. !!! I commented out line 72 and 74 and still doesn't back.. please help!!

Thank you

I have a similiar problem..I'm getting something like
Starting sshd: OpenSSL version mismatch. Built against 90701f, you have 90602f'

Tech support couldnt fix it and they gave me a free 4 hr KVM but Im no guru. I couldnt fix it too only found out that it is about conflicting old/new libraries and of ssh. It says newer 2006 build libraries but says headers are for 2003 and halts..I tried to upgrade the 2003 but couldnt. then I was about to downgrade the libraries but my time ran up..and now I cant reach the server at all. http is ok tho. I dont know what to do now..

The remote console should work fine. As far as fixing ssh try to completely remove and reinstall.
