Afternoon people. I'm wondering if anyone can aid me with a small problem I have..
I have just installed OpenSSH2.9p2 (from the RH7.2 RPM's) and configured the config file to my liking. However I don't have any host key files.
SSHd won't run unless they are present witin the specified directory. Is there a way to generate a host key.. or am I missing something here?

Thanks in advance.

Regards
