I have an openssh RPM package that restarts the sshd server during an upgrade if the daemon is already running. So far, so good, restart works. But I observed the following behaviour: - when issuing rpm -Uvh bla.rpm, rpm, obviously, opens the rpm file and gets a file descriptor. Say, 8. - rpm does its stuff and spawns a shell to execute the %post script. The shell also gets fd 8 (should rpm

Hi; I just attempted to install openssh-3.3p1 on a Sparc box running linux kernel 2.2.14-5.0 However any attempt to connect to the daemon causes a crash. (See below) Given the current security issue, will there be an available option for running the up coming 3.4 release on a Linux 2.2 kernel? Bob ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><>
