I'm starting sshd up -4 -d as arguments and trying to ssh in as my normal user. I have exchanged keys, but the client machine errors out with:

[ adamk@sorrow - ~/Documents ]: ssh 192.168.5.95
ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host

The server shows:

reexec socketpair: Address family not supported by protocol

The current implementation of socketpair() only supports SOCK_STREAM (I.e. TCP) sockets. It's likely that sshd is trying to use a different socket type.

Michael found that you can prevent socketpair() calls with an undocumented -r option and sshd then works:

I'll add these parameters to the sshd start script.

Works on current dev build.
