Re: SSH no longer functions after hostname change [In reply to]

Hi Ryan/Paul-

Not without scheduling a maintenance window which I was hoping to avoid. I am sure a reload would fix the problem as i'd also use it as an opportunity to upgrade the code since I am a half dozen revs behind and have switches running newer versions without any stability issues.

That is very strange.... are you able to kick the switch (power cycle) to see if it resolves or not? I know you shouldn't have to but I'm out of answers too ;)

Hi Paul-

The funny thing is this is the only switch causing problems. We changed the hostnames on over a dozen others without any issues.

I tried re-generating the keys to no avail.

Normally all we do is a "crypto key gen rsa" if a hostname changes and we
continue on... this regens the keys and stops/starts the SSH process....

Hello-

We recently changed some of our hostnames on various legacy switches to
follow our naming convention, and after one change I can no longer SSH to
the switch.

I get the below errors on the console with debug ip ssh client running:

Aug 10 11:23:44 EST: SSH5: sent protocol version id SSH-2.0-Cisco-1.25
Aug 10 11:23:44 EST: SSH5: protocol version id is - SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_4.3
Aug 10 11:23:44 EST: SSH2 5: RSA_sign: private key not found
Aug 10 11:23:44 EST: SSH2 5: signature creation failed, status -1
Aug 10 11:23:44 EST: SSH5: Session disconnected - error 0x00

I zero'ized the old keys and re-generated as well as set the hostname back
to the original and zero'ized and re-generated to no avail. Nothing shows
up on Google and I can find no errata related to SSH access on the version
of code we are running.

Has anyone encountered this before? This is a 3750 running 12.2(44)SE2
