[Bug 1329939] Re: Service ssh stop/start/restart hangs

[Axel]

Hi,

I have quite the same problem.
Only after a reboot the sshd is running, working and accepting connections.

Whatever I try:
 stop ssh, 
 restart ssh, 
 start ssh
or with service like:
 service ssh stop/start/restart
or with /etc/init.d/ssh, which isn't doing anything.


the daemon ist (maybe) started, but NOT accepting connections.

the command: start ssh 
does NOT return. and ssh ist not started/running.
I have to press ^C, then the the service is started!  wtf?!?!
and shows up with:    /usr/sbin/sshd -D

but in this state it is not accepting connections.
I tries all combinations and methods. 
nothing is working.

funny thing:
when i start it with:   start ssh &
the command returns, nothing is really started  (ps -ef shows nothing)

BUT when i say:   service ssh status

this happens:
ssh start/running, process 11633
ssh start/running, process 11633
[1]+  Done                    start ssh

now sshd ist started AND accepting connections!!!!!
this really is a bug!
its the only way to start/restart the daemon without reboot :(


best regards
 axel
