Corrina,
I was looking through that message you suggested reading and Im not sure
if you see the same thing Im seeing.
I did get another response from another user group which will remain
nameless (don't want to upset Larry :) ), which this was his response:
Hi,
I had the same problem and didn't get any answer from this list yet
(guess we aren't to many of us using 2003 yet:-). But after three full
days of trial and error I got it working by:
- starting the sshd service under another user than the "Local System
account" with
password (I use an acount with Administrator privileges but don't
know if it is needed).
- chown the following files to that user:
chown <user> /etc/ssh_host*
chown <user> /var/empty
chown <user> /var/log/sshd.log
I think that was all, hope it helps!
