openssh unix dev - May 2002 - Problems with OpenSSH 3.2.2p1 on Solaris 7

just upgraded to OpenSSH 3.2.2p1 on a box running Solaris 7. now I get the
following when logging on:

  Warning: no access to tty (Inappropriate ioctl for device).
  Thus no job control in this shell.

everything works alright with 3.0p1, but 3.1p1 and 3.2.2p1 seems to have
this problem.

Hi,

just joined the list... got this problem as mentioned above, so found this
list, and in reply:

We just tried out 3.2.2p1 on Solaris 7, got the same error message as prev
mentioned

We find 3.1p1 is OK on Solaris 7, with openssl 0.9.6c and  when compiled
from source (had issues with the precompiled package).
