Hi, hoping someone can help me with a OpenSSH problem. I have managed to
get OpenSSH up and running and can succesfully connect to my Windows XP
Pro machine from any machine I like.

The problem is that everytime I reboot I must start up a command prompt
and stop the service (net stop opensshd) and then restart the
service(net start openssh) otherwise I get an

ssh_exchange_identification: connection closed by remote host

error. I get this even when I attempt to connect to localhost. Is there
any way around this, because it can be annoying if my machine at home is
rebooted when I am away as I can no longer connect.

Thanks Mat.
