...#39;s configured shell? ssh -oCommandShell=/bin/sh example.com "my command here" But maybe there is already a way to do this and I just have not been able to figure it out? This problem finally caused me enough trouble that I decided I would need to ask for help.

I am supporting a site that allows members to upload release files. I have inherited this site which was previously existing. The goal is to allow members to file transfer to and from their project area for release distribution but not to allow general shell access and not to allow access to other parts of the system. Currently rsync and old scp has been restricted using a restricted shell

...er last week...upon restart, I could not log back in using the root password the former employee left me. Is there a separate administrator password? Is there any way to reset that? As of right now I cannot gain access to the gui.

Hi all, I have a very strange problem with the public key authentication with 2 machines. I generated the key, configured the authorized_keys etc.. etc.. This is all ok, now: The ssh works without the password for the "root" user, any other user cannot use the key and ssh ask me for the password !! I cannot understand why only the root is able to connect without the password. So, the ssh

I would like to automatically deduce in a script if an ssh key is encrypted or not. Basically in a very particular application I want to be the BOFH and enforce that users place a passphrase on their id_rsa key. If they don't put a passphrase I want to send them back to ssh-keygen until they do. I have not been able to deduce a way to detect this yet. Any hints? Thanks Bob

Hello List, i need the feature of a password option (like --password) for scripting/testing purpose. I know its not secure and i am aware of that, i just need it for internal testing purpose. I did have a little look at the ssh source code, to see where i would hook in my code, but couldn't really find anything useful. I am really new to C. Is there a workaround or already an unofficial

Package: logcheck Version: 1.3.7 Severity: normal After installing logcheck on a system it posted an error to the cron mail address hourly. An untrapped script error was posting stderr output to cron. It originated here: # Hostname either fully qualified or not. if [ $FQDN -eq 1 ]; then HOSTNAME="$(hostname --fqdn)" > /dev/null 2>&1 else

Hey folks, As most of everyone, I use OpenSSH for almost everything and whenever I can: backups, sync, Git, configuration management, and of course console sessions. So much for an intro ;) My laptop and I roam between three networks, though sometimes I leave the laptop at the office overnight, or hop over to the third site for an hour or two. I'd like to find a way to configure OpenSSH (or

Hi All, I''ve run into a bit of a tangle. I currently have two puppet masters which are "load balanced" with round robin DNS (one is also the CA). I''m using dns_alt_names to let them each answer to puppet.my.domain.com For the past year this has been fine. About a week ago I tried to add a third & while all my Linux clients are happy with the new arrangement,

I am trying to understand the details of the deprecation notice. Because I am getting people asking me questions. And I don't know the answer.

Hi. I would like to add an option [-p port] to ssh-copy-id. If this option is given then ssh-copy-id calls ssh with -p port to connect to non-standard port. The patch [1] adds this option to ssh-copy-id and documents it in ssh-copy-id(1) man page [1] http://plautrba.fedorapeople.org/openssh/718674/ssh-copy-id-p-port.patch Thanks, Petr diff --git a/contrib/ssh-copy-id

Is anyone using FAI <http://www.informatik.uni-koeln.de/fai/> to install DomU''s? Our infrastructure is based heavily on using FAI for reproducing server configs so consolidating servers would go much nicer if if we could build the DomU''s with FAI. I''ve not put too much effort into solving my problems yet as I hope someone else ahs solved them for me :) The DomU

I''m trying to build a linux/xen kernel that will run with an NFS root, with out much luck. I''ve edited src/xen-3.0.2-2/linux-2.6.16-xen/.config to include CONFIG_NFS_FS=y (was =m) CONFIG_ROOT_NFS=y (wasn''t there) after running "make kclean" and make "kernels" CONFIG_ROOT_NFS is gone (though the edit to CONFIG_NFS_FS remains): # # Network File

I just recently updated to 3.1p1 and it seems that some X11 forwarding connections are broken while others work. For instance xterm always works fine. But Synchronize (group calendar program) always crashes with the following error. This happens even if I disable access control using 'xhost +'. X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication. Secondly, in going back to
