ame error on mine. SSH is starting. The first line is it starting and
binding to port 22 on ::. Since it already has started, the second line
where it tries to bind again to port 22 on <a href="http://0.0.0.0">0.0.0.0</a> fails. The reason is
that IPv6 and IPv4 are both enabled. SSH starts and binds on port 22 to
all available IPv6 IPs (::). Then, it also tries to bind to all IPv4
IPs (<a href="http://0.0.0.0">0.0.0.0</a>) in case IPv6 is disabled, but the port is already bound.
What I did to get rid of the error message was<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 11/14/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Ashley M. Kirchner</b> <<a href="mailto:ashley@pcraft.com">ashley@pcraft.com</a>> wrote:
