Hmm, i emerged openssh and it installed without problems but when i try to run the server it says this:
| Code: |
Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
Disabling protocol version 2. Could not load host key
sshd: no hostkeys available -- exiting.
|
I have run the keygen and changed the config file but it still doesnt work  does anyone know how to fix this  |

Try running /etc/init.d/ssh start
The first time you run it it will create all the necessary files for you to start the sshd later |

Do you have the correct permissions on the keys? From the Files section of man sshd: | Code: | /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key, /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key,
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
These three files contain the private parts of the host keys.
These files should only be owned by root, readable only by root,
and not accessible to others. Note that sshd does not start if
this file is group/world-accessible.
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_key.pub, /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key.pub,
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key.pub
These three files contain the public parts of the host keys.
These files should be world-readable but writable only by root.
Their contents should match the respective private parts. These
files are not really used for anything; they are provided for the
convenience of the user so their contents can be copied to known
hosts files. These files are created using ssh-keygen(1).

Did you run ssh-keygen yourself or did you do as malloc suggested? Try to delete/move/backup your keys and run | Code: | | /etc/init.d/sshd start |
as root. The script will, as malloc said, create the keys for you. Show us exactly what you do so we can see if there's anything mistyped.
