    i am having linux box with RedHat 7.2 OS. i downloaded
    openssh-3.6p1
    source, compiled it and installed it. then i changed the
    sshd_config file
    after this when i tried to restart the sshd service it fails
    when
    starting sshd service.

         waiting for reply.

    mehul.

         the contents of the sshd_config files are as follows :-

    # $OpenBSD: sshd_config,v 1.59 2002/09/25 11:17:16 markus Exp $

    # This is the sshd server system-wide configuration file. See
    # sshd_config(5) for more information.

    # This sshd was compiled with
    PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin

    # The strategy used for options in the default sshd_config shipped
    with
    # OpenSSH is to specify options with their default value where
    # possible, but leave them commented. Uncommented options change
    a
    # default value.
