Yikes, I think something went terribly wrong with my box today.

[root at fimble tmp]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd restart
Stopping sshd:[  OK  ]
Generating SSH1 RSA host key: [FAILED]

[root at fimble staver]# grep -in sshd /var/log/messages
76:Apr 15 10:06:19 fimble sshd: sshd -TERM succeeded
77:Apr 15 10:06:20 fimble sshd: RSA1 key generation failed

The reason I restarted sshd is because I couldn't connect via ssh, so I 
had to telnet in.  I'm running Red Hat 8.0, has anyone seen this before 
with 8.0?  I'm trying to find evidence of a hack, but I can't so far.
