Error connection(-13): Failed getting banner

Post by Eimantas » 2013/12/29 11:50:55

I get error when i use ssh2: Error starting up SSH connection(-13): Failed getting banner. And then i cant connect to server via winscp or putty. After i restart vps server, everything fine again for a day and then this happens again. Setting MaxStartups in sshd_config to higher number doesnt help.
I have found one more error "UDP_OpenSocket: socket: No buffer space availableFATAL ERROR" so it means i get full buffer, what should i do? Can i clear somehow automatically udp buffer?

If you have selinux enabled then httpd is not allowed to make random network connections by default, it's something you have to enable specifically. Run `setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect 1` to enable it.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
