RE: cannot start sshd


if the permissions and owner are as shown below, and your /var/log/sshd.log
still shows Bad owner or mode for /var/empty then i'm stumpped. have a seach
through the archives, maybe check the owner and mode of your hostkeys, (but
i think that gives its own error messages if they are incorrect.)
