/var/adm/messages file on your SUN box running Solaris 9, welcome to the club.It seems that Patch '118305-04' is the reason. From what I gathered so far, SUN is looking into the problem.
There are reports that forcing
sshd to operate IPv4 only, sometimes solves the problem. It made no difference on my machine.Given that, I don't have a solution, yet. I just wanted you to know that you are not alone in this.
