Hi,

I'm trying to connect from one server to another via ssh, the server that I'm connecting from only has openssh installed. The server that I'm connecting to has the following packages installed:

Code:

ssh-3.2.9.1-ML_RHEL4
openssh-3.9p1-8.RHEL4.12
openssh-clients-3.9p1-8.RHEL4.12
openssh-server-3.9p1-8.RHEL4.12

when I connect from server1 to server2 with -v, I see this:

Code:

debug1: Remote protocol version 2.0, remote software version 3.2.9.1 SSH Secure Shell (non-commercial)
debug1: no match: 3.2.9.1 SSH Secure Shell (non-commercial)
debug1: Enabling compatibility mode for protocol 2.0

I then checked on server2 and found that it's running the sshd2 daemon.

Now I have a few questions around this, firstly how and where is the sshd2 daemon started from, how can I check that this is the daemon thats started on bootup? I've checked in a few different folder locations and I seem to have both sshd and sshd2 folders in the same places.

The second thing is, I'd like agent forwarding to work but I'm not sure if this is compatible or not between these 2 versions of ssh, I've heard mixed answers.

Thirdly, if I wanted to run the openssh daemon, how can i manage this and would it clash with the sshd2 daemon already running.

Thanks for any help.
