[cobalt-users] tried Postgres -- screwed up SSH (need help)

[Josh Kuperman <josh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I can't connect from home to my RaQ XTR using SSH. I could
yesterday. I suspect that somehow I changed something in the admin
database that messed up SSH.


My initial desire was to figure out how to interactively use the
preinstalled PostgreSQL database that came with RaQ XTR. I read
through the Developers Technical Note and followed many of its
instructions. The Tech Note is at work at the moment and I'm at home.

I had previously found that from time to time I would need to restart
SSH - and then, on this list, I was given instructions on how to set
it to come up using the chkconfig command.

Below the sig is the verbost output from my attempt. I am
confused. Worst case is I reinstall everything, more likely I just go
and stick a terminal on the RaQ XTR -- which will be new. I also made
some changes to /etc/hosts.allow but since sshd isn't run through
inetd that shouldn't matter -- unless there is something weird.

Best guess is I'm just missing an option for SSH.
