I had a working ssh connection to my pix 506e until I changed the internal ip address. Of course the session would drop because I changed from
192.168.1.3 to 192.168.1.1. I have done this before and reconnected to the new internal address with no problem.This time, though, it did not work; ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
I rebooted the pix to restore the previous configuration and it does respond to pings at 192.168.1.3, but the ssh still does not work.
OpenSSH_3.9p1, OpenSSL 0.9.7d 17 Mar 2004 debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config debug1: Applying options for * debug1: Connecting to 192.168.1.3 [192.168.1.3] port 22. debug1: Connection established. debug1: identity file /home/john/.ssh/identity type -1 debug1: identity file /home/john/.ssh/id_rsa type -1 debug1: identity file /home/john/.ssh/id_dsa type -1 ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
Any ideas?
The only other changes made recently were to the hostname and domain-name of the pix. It still worked afterwards, though.
