Hi,
not sure if this is considered news, but I have been able to
build OpenSSH 5.8p2 on mips-dec-ultrix4.5.
On my system I have ULTRIX 4.5 with the latest Y2K
patch kit as well as zlib-1.2.5, openssl-0.9.8m and
prngd-0.9.29, several GNU utilities and gcc-3.0.4.
To build openssh one has to check in various files
if <sys/socket.h> and/or <netinet/ip.h> are multiply
defined, because of "includes.h".
edit config.h to
#define BROKEN_READV_COMPARISON
#undef HAVE_TYPE_IN_UTMP
#define DISABLE_UTMPX
#undef ENABLE_PKCS11
in ssh-keygen.c remove references to pkcs11_init and
pkcs11_terminate on lines 1410 and 1493.
to get sshd working one has to either set "UsePrivilegeSeparation no"
or "Compression no" in sshd_config. I finally went with
"Compression no".
I hope this report is helpful for some people, although
I am quite sure that the number of ULTRIX users out
there is very, very small at best.
Please CC: me if you want to reply, because I am not

regards,
Dennis
