When I try to start sshd I get an error when the script tries to generate the Hostkey. The RSA-Hostkey and DSA-Hostkey get generated though. The results in that SSH1 is disabled as the daemon starts. Not that anyone misses SSH1, but it's kinda ugly. root@kennel root # /etc/init.d/sshd start * Generating Hostkey... You must specify a key type (-t). Usage: ssh-keygen [options] Options: -b bits Number of bits in the key to create. -c Change comment in private and public key files. -e Convert OpenSSH to IETF SECSH key file. -f filename Filename of the key file. -i Convert IETF SECSH to OpenSSH key file. -l Show fingerprint of key file. -p Change passphrase of private key file. -q Quiet. -y Read private key file and print public key. -t type Specify type of key to create. -B Show bubblebabble digest of key file. -C comment Provide new comment. -N phrase Provide new passphrase. -P phrase Provide old passphrase. * Starting sshd...

I think this is fixed in the latest openssh, just remerge it and update /etc/init.d/sshd
Yup, it is. I noticed right after I entered the bug. Should I make the bug as closed now or what?
