Hi,

ive restored an user backup and now i got an error, cannot log into server from ssh...

if i try with putty server ask for login username and when i put admin window close in 5 secs.

i've tryied from linux and i got this error:

>ssh [email protected]
Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive).

if i try to restart server work, but if i try to restart sshd i got an error with no detail...

im on debian 3.1 and now i cannot access on the server with ssh...

some one can say me how can i solve?

thanks
 
Did the user have shell access? If not, then the ssh configuration file shouldn't have been touched.

Is it possible you've run out of disk space?

If you run out of disk space while updating a configuration file that can cause a problem.

It appears that your sshd_config file has somehow become corrupted; you'll probably need local access to fix it.

The file looks good. Have you tried restarting, stopping and starting the ssh daemon? Is the ssh daemon running?

You can set a cronjob to do:
Code:
# ps waux | grep sshd
and mail you the output.

Can you see in /var/log/messages or /var/log/secure, any errors when you try to login?

If you have a firewall, can you temporarily stop it?

It doesn't look like it can be an error caused by DA.

I can certainly understand you not wanting to have to visit the data center, but sometimes it's the only way.

how can i make cronjob email me?

i make one but dunno what happen...

messages log is stopd from the reboot.. nothing new write in..

i haveno firewall and on log viewer /var/log/secure is not show
