Problems on RedHat Sparc Linux

[Timothy S. Gallagher]

I tried setting rhost and rhostrsa authentication to no in
/etc/ssh/ssh_config.  That didn't work.  When I added "UsePrivilegedPorts
no" to /etc/ssh/ssh_config, it gave me a syntax error.  I tried using ssh -P
hostname, which locked up on authenticating to host.  Someone I know who
uses openssh on an Alpha Linux host has the same problem, but the ports are
different even for him (1024-65535).  To get openssh to work on a Sparc
Linux box, I set the firewall open from ports 512-1023.

Thanks for your help,

turn off rhost and rhostrsa authentication in the client.
or set UsePrivilegedPorts=no in {/etc/ssh_config,.ssh/config}
