When I encounter the problem with TCP port forwarding locking up, I'll see this on the client window (if I haven't invoked ssh with -q): chan_shutdown_read failed for #1/fd6: Transport endpoint is not connected chan_shutdown_read failed for #1/fd6: Transport endpoint is not connected This is with Blowfish encryption. I have to kill and restart the client when this happens. Phil

...sts, eg. SSH_REMOTE_FORWARD_PORT_1, SSH_REMOTE_FORWARD_PORT_2, .... I was able to wedge a proof of concept into session.c:do_setup_env (patch below). It's a hack because there doesn't seem to be an API to iterate channels outside of channels.c. Would it be agreeable to export channels and channels_alloc? Also, struct Channel doesn't let you tell which forwards were dynamically allocated, so an environment variable is set for all RemoteForwards. This could be changed by extending struct Channel, though it isn't a show-stopper for me. Last thought: if a new protocol request type were added...

I am running OpenSSH 2.9p1 on SunOS 5.7 w/4-24-2001 patch cluster. Like many other users I am seeing the hanging session on logout with background processes. This is a huge problem for me as I centrally manage 50+ machines with rdist across ssh. Instead of just complaining about the problem I thought I would put my CS degree to use and try to track down the problem myself. For starters,

I'm reading this fine article on O'Reilly: http://linux.oreillynet.com/lpt/a//linux/2001/11/08/ssh_keystroke.html <quote> The paper concludes that the keystroke timing data observable from today's SSH implementations reveals a dangerously significant amount of information about user terminal sessions--enough to locate typed passwords in the session data stream and reduce the

Hello, In response to the timing analysis attacks presented by Dawn Song et. al. in her paper http://paris.cs.berkeley.edu/~dawnsong/ssh-timing.html we at Silicon Defense developed a patch for openssh to avoid such measures. Timing Analysis Evasion changes were developed by C. Jason Coit and Roel Jonkman of Silicon Defense. These changes cause SSH to send packets unless request not to,
