openssh unix dev - Jan 2003 - Creating statically linked sshd binary

Is there an easy way to do this?

thanks

hmm sure .. except there will be some system library that always will be
dynamic, nothing you can do about that!

a) compile zlib static , or move/delete the shared libs so the compiler
will not find them!

b) compile openssk static , or move/delete the shared libs so the
compiler will not find them!

c) compile openssh


on my system i have static linked sshd/ssh:

ldd sshd
        libsocket.so.1 =>        /usr/lib/libsocket.so.1
        libnsl.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/libnsl.so.1
        libc.so.1 =>     /usr/lib/libc.so.1
        libdl.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/libdl.so.1
        libmp.so.2 =>    /usr/lib/libmp.so.2
        /usr/platform/SUNW,Ultra-30/lib/libc_psr.so.1


ldd ssh
        libsocket.so.1 =>        /usr/lib/libsocket.so.1
        libnsl.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/libnsl.so.1
        libc.so.1 =>     /usr/lib/libc.so.1
        libdl.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/libdl.so.1
        libmp.so.2 =>    /usr/lib/libmp.so.2
        /usr/platform/SUNW,Ultra-30/lib/libc_psr.so.1


As you can see no other then system libs is needed, this is on a Sun
Sparc system but can be done with linux too ... just need to be handy
with configure :)

have fun!                                          


btw e-mail to your e-mail bounced!!!
