Hello to all There is some very strange problem in 1.2.1pre19. I can not even log in, I'm always getting message "Permission denied, please try again." Seems like problem in auth-passwd.c or something. I tried to mix pre18 & pre19, but... ;) Bye

Thanks to Richard June, John Horne and Bosko Radivojevic, who pointed out that I probably need to set the configure-time option --with-default-path, so I did this (rather than make symlink messes, which I'd prefer to avoid) : 1489 ./configure --with-default-path=/bin:/usr/bin:/opt/local/bin --prefix=/opt/local --with-random=/dev/random 1490 m...

I've noticed rather strange wtmp logging behavior in sshd. Can anyone confirm or solve the following: Once a user authenticates themself to sshd, sshd among other things records the login in the wtmp, which `last` reads. However, sshd logs hostnames which are longer than 16 characters instead of IPs like normal programs would. As a result, I have useless entries such as: tempest

Hello! There is (still) problem with loging logins in wtmp (on Slackware 4 & Slackware 7). utmp & lastlog are successfully updated, but there is nothing in wtmp. Bye

Hello I have problem with OpenSSH 2.1.1p1 on libc5 system (Slackware 4). I'm not sure if I had those problems with 1.2.x version of OpenSSH (on the same system), but I don't think so. When someone ends ssh session (logout, or something) utmp entry for that user doesn't get erased from UTMP file. In 'finger' I can see a lot of multiplicied users that are not actually logged

Hello! Well-known thing is abusive use of ping abillity to fill out the ICMP packet with '+++ATH0', which will cause hangup on 'bad' modems. The defense, at the clinet side, is to add 'S2=255' to modem settings. This 'technique' is used in irc wars, and other abusive attacks, and shell providers have a lot of problems with that. There are two ways to forbid users

Hello to all! I have problem with OpenSSH 1.2.1pre18 on Linux (kernel 2.2.13, distribution Slackware 4.0). When someone login using ssh, there is no way to see his presentance with some 'standard' tools (finger, who, w, users...). Of course, his proccesses are in ps, and so. I've tried to see /etc/utmp using vi, and there is some entry, but maybe invalid, or something. When I enable
