Hi, I would like to request password protection in syslinux. I know that it has come up a few times on the mailing list (google for "site:www.zytor.com syslinux password"), and on http://www.zytor.com/pipermail/syslinux/2002-May/000421.html you say interesting things about COMBOOT images. So I was wondering if I could bring that feature request to your attention again :) grub has it,

Hi, I'm trying to use pxelinux to start Linux and optionally other things, maintained by windows folks. They use the Intel pxe boot loader, bstrap.0, and when I load it with a "kernel bstrap.0" statement, it fails. The reason it fails is because it can't find the !PXE data area. I guess it doesn't get the correct pointer or something along those lines. Do you think it

Hi, I looked in the archives, but didn't see this asked for before: Would it be possible to have an "auto-compress" mode for ssh where compression is turned on automatically if it makes sense? You could turn it on if you don't care about cpu usage and lag, but just about the speed of transfer. The way I see it working is that when running uncompressed, ssh turns on

Hi there, I would like to have SSH connections be more "sudo-like". With that I mean, when I ssh/scp/sftp to a host and disconnect, the channel is held open for a while in case I reconnect. I wrote a script (attached) that does this. It starts a master SSH daemon for the connection if needed. Then it exec()s SSH. Just put it in your path and use perssh instead of ssh. It has some

Hi there, So I created a patch that makes ssh behave more like sudo. You connect to a host typing your password, you quit, you connect again and you are let in immediately. If you wait for too long you have to type your password again. It works if you have a ControlPath, ControlMaster is auto, ControlPersist is yes and ControlTimeout is for example 5m. This will make a master when you

Hi all, If you specify this perl script as a ForceCommand, users will not be able to run commands (or scp) remotely, only login. Probably no-one will have a use for this but I thought I'd share because it shows how to run a shell as a login shell from a ForceCommand. Wout. #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; # Give the user a shell if that was their intention if (exists $ENV{SSH_TTY} &&
