The problem turned out to be that when I compiled ssh
and created the packages, I did that on a Sun4u
machine (64 bit). The machine I needed to run ssh is
a Sun4m (32).

- The problem wasnt permission related to sshd
binary.
- The problem wasnt missing any particular libraries
or any package.
- The problem is not that the sshd is a text file. I
did use: file /usr/local/bin/sshd

---------------------------------------------------
The original question:

Dear Sun Managers,

I want to use openssh on a machine that has a core
cluster installation of Solaris 8 (versus a Solaris 8
machine that has the Entire Distribution plus OEM
support cluster). The problem I have now is that when
I run the openssh-3.0.2p1 daemon: /usr/local/sbin/sshd
I get the following message:

/usr/local/sbin/sshd sytax error at line 1: '('
unexpected

This is how I installed openssh:
- The following programs were installed on a Solaris 8
machine that has the Entire Distribution plus OEM
support cluster.
- Zlib- 1.1.3
- Openssl-0.9.6c
- Prngd-0.9.23
- Openssh-3.0.2p1

- I created a package for each of the above programs
using pkgmk

- Pkgadd all of the above packages to another Solaris
machine that has Entire Distribution plus OEM support
cluster. Ran the /usr/local/sinb/sshd, things worked
great.
- Transferred those packages to a Solaris machine that
has a core cluster (versus Entire Distribution plus
OEM support cluster) and pkgadd all of the packages.
Ran the /usr/local/sbin/sshd, and got the error
message.
- Added another package from Sun freeware site,
libgcc-3.0.2-sol-8-sparc, but got the same error
message again.

I am not sure if I am missing any library file, If so,
what are the SUNWxxx packages I need to install?

Any idea where to look to solve this problem?
