    On RH-E-WS-4 I am trying, unsuccessfully, to bring up sshd.
    I am testing it with PuTTY on a nearby Win2k. Watching
    with ethereal, there are about 10 TCP messages before
    it quits. It clearly does not get as far as
    authentication. I set the log level to DEBUG3, and the
    output in the secure file is below. I note that "inetd"
    and "tcp wrappers" are mentioned. Notwithstanding my
    previous query, I am not trying to use xinetd, although
    it is active for other reasons. By the way, stopping
    iptables does not help.

    Help would be much appreciated.
    Mike.
