Re: [tbox-l] Install Failed for Open SSH 3.8

[David C. <cl...@au...>]

Their postinstall script is just trying to generate an RSA key and it is
failing for some reason.
You might try running the RSA key generation by itself on the command line,
and see what messages or errors you get:
/usr/bin/ssh-keygen -q -t rsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key -C '' -N ''
Maybe it can't write the /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key file for some reason.
