ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host PART II



    Greetings again:

I have sshd working again after adding an entry in my firewall/router's 
/etc/hosts.allow file, but I am rather concerned that sshd included 
tcp_wrappers without alerting users that are upgrading software via apt or 
dselect!  Unless I missed something,  I always read all the notifications 
during each Woody upgrade.  

My question now is this:  do I need to make these hosts_allow entries into 
each of my linux computers?  I still find it very odd that all the other 
computers were able to connect to my firewall/router as it was, and only my 
Woody box was banned from connecting.  

The only other thing that might add to the syndrome is that I have a user 
logged (ssh) into my box via the router for several weeks compiling kde3.

----original msg----
    Greetings:

I am unable to connect to my cable firewall/router from my desktop box 
suddenly.  I have gone so far as to wipe out my known_hosts file from my .ssh 
directory, but this still gives me the same error.  What is unusual is that I 
can ssh to any of the other computers on my lan, *then* ssh to my router 
without difficulty.  What did I do wrong?  Any help gleefully excepted.  I am 
running woody on both boxes, and updated them an hour ago.  I also ran 
dpkg-reconfigure for ssh on the router just in case I had an update and 
entered a wrong value.

PS plz mail me direct as I am not on this list.

thank you
