Hi there,

I have an sshd running in a virtual machine running openSUSE 12.3. I
want to connect to that VM via ssh (the host OS is Debian Testing), but
it fails. In the syslog of the VM I only recieve ""could not write ident
string to <IP>", even with LogLevel set to DEBUG.

I had a brief look at the source code but was not able to understand
what is going wrong. Searching for that error message on the web did not
produce any useful results.

Do you have any hint for me how to troubleshoot this issue?

Thank you!

Yours
  David
