Hello,

I am using ubuntu 10.10 and I do not know why these errors are coming when
trying
to use ssh. Since I don't know much about networking, I am sure that I
didn't make
any changes in the ssh_config file.

Can someone send me the new copy which I can try or tell the solution.

/etc/ssh/ssh_config: terminating, 18 bad configuration options

Those options are meant to go into sshd_config

Try this command:
mv /etc/ssh/ssh_config /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Then replace your ssh_config with a basic ssh_config:
Host *
ForwardAgent no
ForwardX11 no
ForwardX11Trusted no
RhostsRSAAuthentication no
RSAAuthentication yes
PasswordAuthentication yes
HostbasedAuthentication no
GSSAPIAuthentication no
GSSAPIDelegateCredentials no
GSSAPIKeyExchange no
GSSAPITrustDNS no
BatchMode no
CheckHostIP yes
AddressFamily any
ConnectTimeout 0
StrictHostKeyChecking yes
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/identity
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_dsa
Port 22
Protocol 2
Cipher aes256-ctr
Ciphers
aes128-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr,arcfour256,arcfour128,aes128-cbc,3des-cbc
MACs hmac-sha1,umac-64 at openssh.com,hmac-ripemd160
EscapeChar ~
Tunnel no
TunnelDevice any:any
PermitLocalCommand no
VisualHostKey no
SendEnv LANG LC_*
HashKnownHosts yes
