SSH issues...

[Kevin Brown]

Hmm.  Not familiar with running ssh inside of inetd.  I usually run it as a
stand alone daemon and use the config to set allow and deny rules.  By default
the sshd should allow any valid user to login from anywhere.

When I connect using the command line ssh I do:

ssh -l <user> <host>

I'm curious what the /etc/hosts.{allow,deny} files say.
