I'm using openssh-3.7.1p2 on Linux.
I keep getting setlogin errors in /var/log/messages:
Oct 26 18:44:22 giediprime sshd[7774]: Accepted publickey for root from
127.0.0.1 port 39310 ssh2
Oct 26 18:44:22 giediprime sshd[7776]: error: setlogin failed: Function not
implemented
Running LFS 4.0. Happens both on 2.6.0-test8 and 2.4.22-ac1.
When configuring openssh I get this in config.log:
configure:6557: checking for setlogin
configure:6594: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wno-uninitialized
conftest.c -lutil -lz -lnsl >&5
/tmp/cc4nGZCj.o: In function `main':
/tmp/build/openssh-3.7.1p2/configure:6585: warning: setlogin is not implemented
and will always fail
configure:6597: $? = 0
configure:6600: test -s conftest
configure:6603: $? = 0
configure:6613: result: yes
Also noting that there is no #if defined(HAVE_SETLOGIN) or similar
surrounding the offending call at session.c:1259;
if (setlogin(pw->pw_name) < 0)
error("setlogin failed: %s", strerror(errno));
Please CC me on replies..

It doesn't work and ssh reports this as an error because, well, it's an error. Remove HAVE_SETLOGIN from config.h or complain to whoever wrote the C library.> Running LFS 4.0. Happens both on 2.6.0-test8 and 2.4.22-ac1.The kernel version is probably irrelevant, it's the version of the C library that matters.> Also noting that there is no #if defined(HAVE_SETLOGIN) or similar > surrounding the offending call at session.c:1259On platforms without their own setlogin() the replacement in openbsd-compat/bsd-misc.c (an empty stub) is used, since libopenbsd-compat is ahead of libc in the link order. -- Darren Tucker (dtucker at zip.com.au) GPG key 8FF4FA69 / D9A3 86E9 7EEE AF4B B2D4 37C9 C982 80C7 8FF4 FA69 Good judgement comes with experience.
