I got email yesterday from a user who had run 'from' and got the message "No mail in /home/stevev/$USER" (where $USER was that person's username). At first I thought he had pilfered my .bashrc, but on further investigation I discovered that my home directory path had been compiled in to sshd, because the configuration tests assume that the directory part of $MAIL is the systemwide mai...

The recent patch posted by Steve VanDevender <stevev at darkwing.uoregon.edu> for fixing the session code on Tru64 isn't quite right -- it still fails in the case of NO tty being allocated. The problem is that s->tty is a char[TTYSZ] rather than a char *, and hence can't hold a NULL. Calling sia_ses_init() with the tty being an emp...

So.. I''ve been fighting with trying to get puppet to include/execute module in a certain order for several weeks now. I kind of have something hacked together, but it scares me a bit since I don''t know exactly what is happening. I don''t suppose there''s still an easy way to do this....?

It appears to be a pervasive assumption in the Portable OpenSSH code that wtmp and wtmpx records for the end of a session do not need to include the user name or hostname. Unfortunately Solaris appears not to go along with that assumption; the Solaris "last" command shows all login sessions initiated by OpenSSH as never terminating, or sometimes terminating with the user's next

Something really hosed Digital/Tru64 UNIX SIA support in 2.5.2p1. I haven't been able to figure out what changed in the code, but the symptom seems to be that the TTY name being registered with SIA is truncated to eight characters. This apparently prevents it from matching with entries in the tty database, and the dreaded "Cannot obtain database information on this terminal

The conf/redhat/client.init script (installed in /etc/init.d) in 0.24.6 has this "status" method: status) status -p "$pidfile" $puppetd RETVAL=$? ;; Unfortunately the ''-p "$pidfile"'' option is available in Red Hat Server 5 but not earlier versions, where it produces an error: $ cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise
