The way things are now, input_userauth_request() calls the authmethod, and then does a bunch of checks, like the special case for root. If an authmethod requires a challenge-response conversation, these checks are skipped, unless they are duplicated by the authmethod. For example, in auth2-chall.c, some of the code is duplicated (logging, sending the reply), but the root special case is skipped.

This is to announce the availability of SRP (Secure Remote Password) support for OpenSSH. A tarball is available on Tripod: http://members.tripod.com/professor_tom/archives/ http://members.tripod.com/professor_tom/archives/openssh-2.5.2p2-srp5.tar.gz (Note: Tripod requires you to LEFT click on links to download files.) To install, unpack, configure --with-srp, and make install, then create an

I noticed that (perhaps because ':' is invalid in a username) you can say ssh -l user:style host, where the "user:style" is sent by the client, and the server strips the ":style" part off and makes it available as part of the authentication context. It's currently unused. What are the plans for this, if any? I was experimenting with the idea of using it with SRP

Correct me if I'm wrong, but init_rng() in entropy.c doesn't call seed_rng(), and in fact seed_rng() isn't called from _anywhere_ (in openssh-2.5.1p2). So calls to BN_rand() only pick up the tiny/non-existent amount of entropy added by BN_rand() itself from the system clock (time in seconds). Shouldn't seed_rng() be called from init_rng()? It should be called from _somewhere_,

Hello - got a small wishlist item here: The currently available LogLevel settings (according to the man page) are: QUIET, FATAL, ERROR, INFO, VERBOSE and DEBUG. Using "INFO" causes messages about RSA key re-generation to appear in the auth logs. However using the next-lower LogLevel of "ERROR" causes client IP and port to not be reported in the auth logs. I was hoping for

This is the 2nd beta release of SRP for OpenSSH. The patch attached to this message is relative to the current (20010411) CVS sources of OpenSSH-portable (2.5.4p1).

I have uploaded a new release of the OpenSSH (portable) SRP patch. This version is vs. the 20010625 openssh_cvs; there are no other changes.

Does anybody use openbsd-compat/vis.c?

Recently we made somemajor changes to do_child() in OpenSSH -current. Those changes included splitting it up into smaller chunks to help with readability and also to extract out IRIX and AIX specific code to reduce the number of lines in our diffs against the OpenSSH tree. I need people to do some testing on different platforms to ensure that all the right #ifdef/#endif bits got put back in
