In the next sections, we cover a wide range of difficulties, organized by category. We list what, in our experience, are the most frequently asked of the frequently asked questions. We focus on problems that may occur in many versions of the SSH software on diverse operating systems. We don't address issues like this one, which rapidly become obsolete:
Compilation problems specific to one operating system, such as "HyperLinux beta 0.98 requires the -- with-woozle flag"
In all questions, we assume you have already used debug or verbose mode (e.g., ssh -v) to isolate the problem. (If you haven't, you should!)
