If you are running Gentoo:

You'll need to recompile PHP. If you haven't already adjusted the "use" flags for PHP in the past, executing the following commands should work to easily address this:

Code: Select all

echo dev-lang/php ssh2 > /etc/portage/package.use
emerge --newuse php

If you are running CentOS:

It sounds like it's a bit more involved. This site talks about one method that may work: http://www.kevinbradwick.co.uk/2010/01/ ... -5-system/

Since your software requires this, and it's pretty unusual, its developers also likely have more information on how to do it.

im running cent-os with gnome and it wont let me connect via ssh

By default, our CentOS install comes with SSH enabled, and you can connect by following the instructions on the "Server control" page. Did something you install disable it?

Those commands can also be run from any command line. You can do it through the shell inside Gnome, if you wish.

how..?

and i try to login via putty and it says access denied

I am not familiar enough with Gnome to quote the exact steps from memory, but it has the option to open a command shell somewhere in one of its menus.

I would generally recommend just using SSH, directly, though.

qwll if it wont let me connect then cant do that

What do you mean when you say that it won't let you connect? What exactly are you trying, and what is its response?

If something is installed that broke your SSH or made your OS not work properly, you might consider doing a reinstall through the "Server control" page.
