Bind to port 22 on :: failed: Network is unreachable. debug1: Bind to port 22 on 0.0.0.0. Server listening on 0.0.0.0 port 22. This comes from server_listen() in sshd.c (introduced in v4.4p1) and is apparently due to getnameinfo() not returning a valid numeric host address. Should I be concerned? sshd seems to be functioning OK. FTR, this problem does not occur on SCO Openserver 5.0.7. Feature request: Could the sshd version number be added to its...

...with error as per the following log entry: error: Bind to port 22 on fe80::202:5555:fe01:dddd failed: Invalid argument. When using link-local, the sin6_scope_id must be set to specify which interface should be used with the link-local address. There does not appear to be any handling for this in server_listen() function. I believe the ListenAddress should allow a link-local with %<zone_id> allowing the interface name or index to be specified as per RFC4007. The specified interface needs to then result in a sin6_scope_id assignment prior to the bind() in server_listen(). (Since the inclusion of...

I was wondering what everyone's thoughts were on a simpler way to exclude addresses from having listeners on them. I know a lot of people have multiple subnets, especially larger corporations. Some networks are non-route-able, and therefor unsuitable for use with SSH, aside from communication between other servers on the same subnet. Given that we may want to exclude those non-route-able
