Yes, you are right. I've verified that it does work (is listening) on
all available interfaces with the default configuration.

If you leave the listen commented out so that you do not define an
interface is that not the default? That is to say it will listen in on
all defined interfaces? Also it is good to not that if you do define an
interface and leave out loop back it will not talk on loop back, or at
least that is what I had happen on my Linux boxes.

Hi Folks,
I am using version openssh-4.6p1 in solaris server.
Consider my solaris PC is configured as multihomed with two NIC.
e69001% ifconfig -a
ce0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2
inet 172.23.87.109 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 172.23.87.255

inet 192.168.2.133 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.2.255
I mean my PC has two IP address. By making use of ListenAddress in
sshd_config file, i can able to listen ssh/ sftp request from both IP
addresses.
e69001# grep "ListenAddress" sshd_config
#ListenAddress 0.0.0.0
#ListenAddress ::
ListenAddress 172.23.87.109
ListenAddress 192.168.2.133
If we do sftp to both the IP address from different machine, it will
pointout the same default root directory.
From machine1:
tballraker7# ./sftp svplus@192.168.2.133
Connecting to 192.168.2.133...
svplus@192.168.2.133's password:
sftp> pwd
Remote working directory: /usr/users/svplus
sftp > quit
From machine2:
cwmsent51# ./sftp svplus@172.23.87.109
Connecting to 172.23.87.109...
svplus@172.23.87.109's password:
sftp> pwd
Remote working directory: /usr/users/svplus
sftp > quit
Here, the default directory will be defined based on the login username.
But, Is it possible to assign/ configure different default directory for
each IP address with same login username?

It's a shame to have to hard-configure both IP addresses in this config
file -- especially if you are getting them dynamically through DHCP. I
wonder if there is a different way to enable sshd on both NICs without
specifying the IP address...
