Hello,


i'm brand new at this so i need some help to get going.
I scan my old Linux machine, there is openssh v1 running, so metasploit should 
tell me at least one open session but it didin't all sessions are "0 
sessions". So what i have done wrong?

Nothing wrong - just because is running SSH doesn't mean there is an
exploit for it. I don't believe we have any exploits for OpenSSH, as no
pre-auth code exec bug with reasonable requirements has been found in
the last 5+ years. If you want to see whether Metasploit has a module
for a given flaw, you can use the search command in the console, or the
web-based module browser at the web site:
