openssh unix dev - Nov 2000 - RPC exception: "Who are you failed (dce / rpc)"

Hello,

with OpenSSH_2.3.0p1 running in HP-UX 11.00 I noticed that the "SD 
commands" (like "swcopy") produce the following error when being
logged
in via SSH:

ERROR:   RPC exception: "Who are you failed (dce / rpc)" 11/29/00
         11:20:18 MET

Ideas?

Ulrich

Maybe you choose such a command with a relatively few system calls,
and run it via truss/strace over ssh and over transport which works
correctly (telnet?), and then compare truss/strace outputs to see what is
failing...

Is there a difference in the environment that is set up by login vs ssh?

Not very much as it seems:

rkdvmhp6:windl(22) % diff /tmp/e{1,2} |more
1,2d0
< USER=windl
< LOGNAME=windl
5,9c3
< MAIL=/var/mail/windl
< SHELL=/usr/bin/csh
< TZ=MET-1METDST
< SSH_CLIENT=132.199.176.211 1037 22
< SSH_TTY=/dev/pts/0

And the "wgo" seems to work, too:
windl      pts/0        Nov 29 10:45
root       pts/1        Nov 29 10:46
windl      pts/tb       Nov 29 13:50
windl      pts/4        Nov 21 12:38

Is swagentd running?

The truss/trace on HP-UX 11 would be tusc, and is at:
