[lug] Problem with sshd

[carl.wagner at level3.com]

 Hi,
 
 I can't seem to log into my Linux box using SSH.  And I don't know why.
 This is RH/Krud 7.1.  I even tried to reinstall (to a new drive) to 
get around this.
 
 $ ps -ef | grep sshd
 root       756     1  0 01:05 ?        00:00:00 sshd
 root     13059 12514  0 19:48 pts/0    00:00:00 grep sshd
 
  $ chkconfig --list | grep ssh
 sshd            0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
 
  $ ipchains -L | grep ssh
 ACCEPT     tcp  -y----  anywhere             anywhere              any ->
 ssh
 
 "ssh localhost" works.
 
 I am unable to find the sshd process's port when doing a netstat -a.
 
 Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
 
 Thanks,
 Carl.
