RE: sshd, ftpd telnetd starts, but says incorrect passwd


1. Confirm that you have '/usr/bin/ssh-user-config'.
   If you do not have it, run 'setup.exe' and download
   the openssh package.

2. Run '/usr/bin/ssh-user-config --help' at your shell
   prompt.  Also, read the manual page for ssh-keygen:

      $ man ssh-keygen

3. Run /usr/bin/ssh-user-config.  This will create
   public/private-key encryption files that you need
   before you can use ssh.
