Thanks for the fast response,
I did stop sshd with /etc/init.d/sshd stop, started it with 
/etc/init.d/sshd start -v -v -v (the other way around was not possible, 
i.e. the verbose flags before start), and what now? i noticed that in 
node.conf all ENABLE_****_AUTHENTICATION (**** stands for USERMODE, 
PASDB, SSH, SU) are commented. Or do I have to send the public key from 
.ssh to the server? I saw it when i did read a thread about 
installations of an older version. When i deinstalled it, there might 
have been a lockup of something? I can still ssh to the machine with no 
problems.
thanks again
Thomas
