OpenSSH 4.1p1 sshd won't start on AIX 5.1


I posted a few months ago about being unable to get sshd running on AIX. I reformatted the box yesterday and gave it another try and I now have some more useful information.

# /usr/sbin/sshd -d
debug1: sshd version OpenSSH_4.1p1
debug1: private host key: #0 type 0 RSA1
debug1: read PEM private key done: type RSA
debug1: private host key: #1 type 1 RSA
debug1: read PEM private key done: type DSA
debug1: private host key: #2 type 2 DSA
debug1: rexec_argv[0]='/usr/sbin/sshd'
debug1: rexec_argv[1]='-d'
getnameinfo failed: Invalid argument
getnameinfo failed: Invalid argument
Cannot bind any address.

I did some looking on Google and saw a lot of people saying that AIX's getnameinfo implementation is a bit "odd", but no explanation on how to fix it. I'm using the OpenSSH for AIX package on Sourceforge.

Thanks

I fixed the problem. I was running at ML4, when I upgraded to ML9 OpenSSH worked.
