Which version of Solaris are you running? Can you check if the system is hardened and the service in the /etc/inetd.conf and /etc/services file is commented ? Under / , is there the .rhosts file there?

Thanks for reply

Previously the connection was going now only the problem came.

Yes etc/inetd.conf file is commented.
and /etc/services ssh is not commented

There was no .rhosts file under root.

what was the significance of Rhosts Authentication ?

please bare with me am new to UNIX Smilie

first, uncomment the entry in inetd.conf file and see. We'll check on the error which you've pointed to.. keep updating Smilie

Check the /etc/sshd.conf for any rhost auth settings (if any)?

/etc/ssh/ssh_config file was fully commented

can you please tell me the use of Rhosts Authentication disabled

how its affected on the s/m

When the sftp was working same lines are comming as follows

$sftp -v <username>@[IP]
Connecting to <ip>...
debug1: SSH args "ssh -oProtocol = 2 -s -oForwardAgent = no -oForwardX11 = no -l <username> -v <ip> sftp"
SSH Version Sun_SSH_1.0.1, protocol versions 1.5/2.0.
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: Rhosts Authentication disabled, originating port will not be trusted.
debug1: ssh_connect: getuid ### geteuid ### anon 1
debug1: connect: Connection established.

So come to the point first, does your ssh/sftp working now? Is it resolved?
