[c-nsp] SSH no longer functions after hostname change

[Ryan West]

I hate to mention this as an option, but have you rebooted it yet?

Hi Paul-

The funny thing is this is the only switch causing problems.  We changed the hostnames on over a dozen others without any issues.

I tried re-generating the keys to no avail.

Normally all we do is a "crypto key gen rsa" if a hostname changes and we
continue on... this regens the keys and stops/starts the SSH process....

Hello-

We recently changed some of our hostnames on various legacy switches to
follow our naming convention, and after one change I can no longer SSH to
the switch.

I get the below errors on the console with debug ip ssh client running:

Aug 10 11:23:44 EST: SSH5: sent protocol version id SSH-2.0-Cisco-1.25
Aug 10 11:23:44 EST: SSH5: protocol version id is - SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_4.3
Aug 10 11:23:44 EST: SSH2 5: RSA_sign: private key not found
Aug 10 11:23:44 EST: SSH2 5: signature creation failed, status -1
Aug 10 11:23:44 EST: SSH5: Session disconnected - error 0x00

I zero'ized the old keys and re-generated as well as set the hostname back
to the original and zero'ized and re-generated to no avail.  Nothing shows
up on Google and I can find no errata related to SSH access on the version
of code we are running.

Has anyone encountered this before?  This is a 3750 running 12.2(44)SE2
