    Hello,
    could someone post a non modified current sshd_config file of cpanel? I have edited my file and haven't made a backup...
    Thanks.

    If I were you, I would run the script below and then make the changes again.

    http://yourdomain.com:2086/scripts2/doautofixer?autofix=safesshrestart

    Replace yourdomain.com with your server's IP or resolved hostname off course.

    Does it would replace it with a standard file?

    Depends on how extensively you have tweaked sshd_config. It normally resets SSH port from any other to default 22.
    If you have access to console, check /etc/ssh/ folder for a file named sshd_config.rpmnew or similar. This should be the default file. Copy it into sshd_config and you should be good to go after a service restart. If this doesn't work, you can re-install ssh via yum after renaming the current config file.

    SSH restarted now and i just needed to find out which line the missconfiguration was with "/etc/init.d/sshd restart" and then i fixed the wrong line: it's now running fine again. Thanks.

    Glad things are working now. Redundancy is the way to go when you are dealing with sensitive files. :)
