FreeBSD 5.3 and sshd

[Irina]

Hello Richard,

I have enabled ssh on a command line, then through inetd.  Nothing worked.
But...

There was another answer from Jon to me right before yours.  He suggested to
upgrade putty.  I had 0.51.  Upgrading to 0.56 worked.

Who would think about putty?...  I did not :-)

Thank you.

Irina

the installation I created a user account that is in the "wheel" group.
After the installation, logged in as that user at console with no problems.
But can not login using putty from my computer via ssh.  Then enabled telnet
in inetd.conf and could telnet just fine.
