openssh unix dev - Aug 2000 - [Need help] sshd cannot work on mips-sony-bsd

Hi,

I tried openssh on my SONY NEWS-OS 4.2.1R which is 4.3BSD based
system.

I modified a little(*) to compile openssh and the compilation was
successful. Ssh worked but sshd didn't work.

I checked the output of 'sshd -d'. It says

error: open /dev/tty failed - could not set controlling tty: No such device or
address

when connected from remote host (FreeBSD 5-current) with ssh. And I
gave up.

Please help. Thanks in advance.

May I suggest trying the current snapshot?

http://www.mindrot.org/misc/openssh/openssh-SNAP-20000830.tar.gz

This includes a decent size rewrite of the next-posix.[ch] file to deal
with 4.3bsdism on NeXT (which includes utime and wait).

It looks like I should split next-posix.[ch] into next-posix.[ch] and
43bsd-posix.[ch] so we can share common code.
