Hello,
And thanks for the post I got with my previous problem. I will have you know I took that advice and fixed my machine. I have another problem that may be more of a challenge since I have no clue is to what is goin on. Last week I was in Burlington for sun training and came back to my server being totally unable to accept ssh from putty and all the old sun 9 servers can not ssh into the new sun 10 box. Here is more detailed output from a ssh session started from a sun 9 box to my new sun 10:

Any ideas? I am getting kind of desperate. And a little sad.

What kind of your machine and what version of solaris at your machine...???

The message about /usr/lib/gss/gl/mech_krb5.so indicates that the kerberos/GSS support libraries have been removed, I had to leave these installed despite not using them because Solaris 10's SSH says it is dependent on them, I'll admit having not tried removing them anyway to see if SSH still works.

Obvious things to check are that the ~/.ssh folders concerned are chmodded to 600, nothing in your transcript suggests they aren't but depending on how verbose you have the SSHD configuration set to it may not say a lot!
