openssh unix dev - Oct 2003 - slogin <host> -n

slogin "deadlocks" if you invoke it with the (useless, but legal)
switch "-n". stdin is not passed to it (and the local ssh process 
ignores stdin), so it is not possible to kill it using <<~.>>

Should the "-n_ switch be disallowed for an interactive invocation?

Hi All,

I have a doubt.

I am using OpenSSH-3.6.1p2. I have patched the source with simon's GSSAPI
patch.

My configuration in the ssh_config has a line
"GssApiAuthentication no"

Now, even though I am NOT using the GSSAPI authentication, when I run the
ssh in my machine to the a sshd server, I am getting
"Couldn't import hostname".
and the client connection aborts.

When I browse the code, this is from kexgssc.c line #69 in function
"kexgss_client". This is basically when the ssh_gssapi_import_name( )
is
called.But I could not capture this in gdb.

Could anyone shed some light on when will the kexgss_client will be called
and what could be the reason for this error, [mentioned above]?

Advance thanks
Kumaresh.
