o.k., it was a simple question.

therefore here first the short summary :

Check the SSH-FAQ section 9.4

http://www.employees.org/~satch/ssh/faq/ssh-faq-9.html#ss9.4

thanks to Dirk Hufnagel !

and for all who are interested and so ignorant than I here the long
version :

In my case I installed the ssh2 simultanously on two machines and on one
machine it works fine and on the other it doesn't. I compared the config
files : they were identical. At this point I asked my question. The
solution : It depends on the pathes. But with the settings described below
all things should work in any case.

you at least need ssh1 Version 1.2.26 (I got 1.2.31 (from www.ssh.com or a
mirror) and installed it first)
All earlier versions wouldn't work.

After installation have a look at the config files for ssh2( default under
/etc/ssh2)

ssh2_config
sshd2_config

and check the lines for the SSH1 compatiblity in ssh2_config:

These two lines are necessary :

## SSH1 Compatibility

         Ssh1Compatibility yes (this is the default)

         Ssh1Path /usr/local/bin/ssh1
(this line is commented in the original config file)

and in sshd2_config :

## SSH1 compatibility

        Ssh1Compatibility yes
        Sshd1Path /usr/local/sbin/sshd1

This is necessary to connect from a ssh1 machine

Make sure you fill in your correct path for ssh1 and sshd1

stop and restart sshd (to start sshd2)

and after this all connections should work

The following told me to use Open shell instead of ssh :

My original message :

Hallo,

perhaps again a very simple question :

At last I've installed ssh2 (2.4.0)

Everything seems to work fine (after I've also installed the newest
version of ssh1 (1.2.31)) but ...

I've to connect explicitly over ssh1 if I want to connect to a machine
where only ssh1 is installed

And from outside my machine is only reachable over ssh2. Frome all
machines who haven't yet installed ssh2 my workstation isn't reachable
over ssh.

Thanks for help

Once again thanks for all who helped
