    Hi,

    Just came across a couple of situations after transitioning away from
    ssh.com to OpenSSH (now that gssapi+mic is supported) One I will send
    in another email regarding another OS, but we have a AIX 5.1 box where
    3.9p1 has compiled and sshd is running, however, no clients can connect
    to that host. ("ssh_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by
    peer") Debug logs below:

    -=-
    # /tmp/openssh-3.9p1/sshd -ddd
    debug3: Seeding PRNG from /usr/libexec/ssh-rand-helper
    debug2: load_server_config: filename /etc/sshd_config
    debug2: load_server_config: done config len = 191
    debug2: parse_server_config: config /etc/sshd_config len 191
    debug1: sshd version OpenSSH_3.9p1
    debug3: Not a RSA1 key file /etc/ssh_host_rsa_key.
    debug1: read PEM private key done: type RSA

    debug1: rexec_argv[1]='-ddd'
    debug2: fd 3 setting O_NONBLOCK
    debug1: Bind to port 22 on 0.0.0.0.
    Server listening on 0.0.0.0 port 22.

    % openssh -vvv catbert

    ssh_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by peer
    -=-

    There is no activity on the server end while the client is trying to
    connect. Any ideas what could be causing this?
