Bug Openssh v2.3.0

[Markus Weis]

Hello together,
we have very often a problem using OpenSSH v2.3.0 on Solaris 2.6.
The daemon hangs up and it is not possible to login in. The -v option
for ssh displays the following:

# ssh -v zvadm1
SSH Version OpenSSH_2.3.0p1, protocol versions 1.5/2.0.
Compiled with SSL (0x0090600f).
debug: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh_config
debug: Seeded RNG with 34 bytes from programs
debug: Seeded RNG with 3 bytes from system calls
debug: ssh_connect: getuid 31194 geteuid 0 anon 1
debug: Connecting to zvadm1 [139.7.180.119] port 22.
debug: Connection established.

But no connection is possible.


The system displays the following messages:

/var/adm/messages
...

After a kill of all sshd on the system and a new start it is possible to
login to the system.
Can somebody help us?
