what about a server reboot? it almost fix all problems. I know its not a proper solution but you can give it a try.

Is the machine running out of disk space? This can cause services to fail at times.
Do you have KVM console available? This would allow you to get into console and do further diagnostics.Neosurge Web Services since 2002

Maybe you can try to kill the sshd process from the WHM :
System health >> Process Manager >> sshd
Restart Services >> SSH Server (OpenSSH)Last edited by Erawan Arif Nugroho; 11-30-2010 at 08:16 AM.

what is the server uptime? if its too long i would strongly suggest a reboot... you might have many hidden issues which will be automatically fixed during a reboot.

I am sorry to all of you, we got reinstalled CSF firewall but i forgot to open an alternate SSH port that's why i was not able to connect SSH server.
further i have tried to restart SSH using following ways
service sshd restart
/scripts/restartsrv_sshd
/scripts/restartsrv sshd
/etc/init.d/sshd restart
But i am still receiving same error while restarting SSH Daemon from WHM
Main >> Restart Services >> SSH Server (OpenSSH)
Please suggest me what do i do now.

WHM always shows an error if SSH is running on a different port other than default. It still restarts the service successfully though, I'm quite sure.

Try adding that custom port on WHM allowed ports list as you have WHM access.
On most of the case CSF would completely block the server and you may need to contact DC Lol. But lucky you have WHM access. Try to add that custom SSH port and restart the firewall and SSH service then.
I hope that could resolve it.

I think your ssh configuration is wrong.
The best option at this time is contact your datacenter and him to reinstall SSH█ ablehosting.com - Successfully Operating Since 2002

Either you mat try enabling the custom ssh port which you have configured for ssh on csf via WHM. Else you would have to contact DC, as you have no other choices unless you have a KVM access to your server.
