    From mrcrud@21:2/150 to All on Wed Oct 27 09:48:06 2021
    Hi...I'm setting up a BBS, and got Telnet access working with no problem. SSH is giving me problems. It fails with error message "Unable to set key (-2).

    I've tried everything I can think of: verified port is open, CryptLib is installed, server is configured correctly, tried changing ports, etc.

    Try it yourself, please. bbs.thecreepingcrud.com:1313 for telnet. That should work just fine. But bbs.thecreepingcrud.com:7777 (SSH) craps out.

    btw, my board is in the very beginning stages. So there's nothing to do right now, except get bored. :)

    Thanks!

    run `netstat -tulpn|grep 7777` and see if something else has already bound to that port. Maybe you're trying to use a port that is already in use.

    I've tried everything I can think of: verified port is open, CryptLib is installed, server is configured correctly, tried changing ports, etc.

    Good luck, be interested to know how you get on.
