I carefully tested the connection to make sure that it was still up but apparently it died sometime thereafter. >BTW, it seems that reverse dns lookup (e.g. dig, nslookup) doesn't >work for 209.249.29.67 anymore. It seems to be flaky. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It's going to change soon, so I'm not too worried. I restarted sshd. Wish I knew what stopped it to begin with. It was probably me but I don't see how I did it. I just used a "service sshd restart". I tried it again just now and it restarted sshd just fine. Weird. cgf
