Not able to start my ssh daemon

[dcutinha]

I need help.. my solaris 8 box is giving problems..
The Problem was..
I was not able to connect to my sun box via sshd,
I went and check the box the sshd had died,
but the netstat command shows that
port 22 status as Listening..X-)

Hence, i am not able to start my ssh daemon now...
Suggest something.... how do i kill the Listen status
manually??(I know reboot makes it works)

Thanks,

Hi,
There might be some entry of your ssh service in u'r /etc/inetd.conf file.If there is ,then just find out the process Id of inetd daemon and restart the daemon by giving the command :
kill -HUP <PID>

Hi Ajay,

No such entry in /etc/inetd.conf .
Service started by /etc/rc2.d/S99sshd .

I think that this has some thing to do with the kernel.
So I had to shutdown to make it work.

But if there is a way out ..Please tell me..

Thanks,
