similar to: [Bug 703] non-interactive commands fail on solaris 8

We recently started upgrading OpenSSH on our Sol8 systems and we've run into a problem were we can run commands on a remote system since we installed 3.7.1p1. The debug output from sshd is attached below. We use PAM in our environment, and have since 2.9.9p2. I think most of the systems were running 3.4p1 prior installing 3.7.1p1 and they were working - the only thing we replaced was

>Okay, this appears to be a problem with pam_unix.so - the code in >pam_sm_open_session is written with the assumption that the tty name is of >the form "/dev/" + something else on the end. I'm not sure why the pam_sm_open_session in pam_unix on Solaris now does this: /* report error if ttyn or rhost are not set */ if ((ttyn == NULL) || (rhost == NULL))

Hello, all- Apparently, under Solaris (I can personally confirm SunOS 5.7 and 5.8), pam_open_session will generate a segfault if PAM_TTY is not set. The obvious symptom of this is that OpenSSH 2.9.9p2 will segfault on any operation that does not request a tty (do_exec_no_pty). Based on a quick google search, this seems to have been encountered by others, though the specific symptoms seem to

The reason I ask about the patches is because I think the problem you're seeing might actually be a bug in pam_unix.so.1 - it's something to try at least. We don't use password aging and we don't use the "passwd" command to change passwords, so we haven't run into this at our site even though we probably don't have pam_unix.so patched up. Also, the passwd

Hello all Samba enthusiasts. I am a noob w.r.t. samba configuration and just happened to use it on Solaris systems by creating conf files using copy-paste :-). This is just to convey that I'm no advanced user and might need help with the solutions / alternatives to come. Some background => Here is my smb.conf: === [global] workgroup = <company domain> server string = Samba

Dear list readers: I've installed the most recent Samba from source on my Redhat Linux server. The simple file share I've made shows up, the machine pings correctly, and does ftp and apache fine, but won't let anyone login to Samba. For example: $ smbclient '//WWW.PSYCH.UDEL.EDU/SIMPLE/' -U me added interface ip=128.175.41.164 bcast=128.175.41.255 nmask=255.255.255.0

Hi, Sorry no core dumps, the sshd programme is perfectly happy just fails to consider changing the password.

It appears that "fixpaths" has "/usr/bin/perl" hard-coded in. This causes make to fail immediately after running configure.

I'm guess I wasn't following the whole cookies discussion completely (putting cookies in /tmp to avoid putting them on NFS, etc.), but I noticed today that with 2.9.9p2, if I use "ssh -X" to start a shell on the server, in that shell XAUTHORITY is set to /tmp/ssh-XXXXXXXX/cookies and there are cookies placed there there. These are the "fake" cookies for the

In do_pam_cleanup_proc(), there are 3 calls to PAM: 1) pam_close_session() - do lastlog stuff 2) pam_setcred(PAM_DELETE_CRED) - delete credentials 3) pam_end() - close PAM It appears that pam_setcred() always fails with the error PAM_PERM_DENIED. This is due to a check done pam_unix.so to not allow a caller with euid 0 to even try to delete their SECURE_RPC credentials. When sshd calls

(I vaguely remember talk about PAM session stuff recently... please excuse me if this is the same problem.) I compiled v2.9.9p2 on Solaris 8 with the following configuration and the Sun Workshop v5 compiler: OpenSSH has been configured with the following options: User binaries: /opt/openssh-2.9.9p2/bin System binaries: /opt/openssh-2.9.9p2/sbin

I'm having trouble getting any sort of work-around for 3.10 on Solaris 8 with Sun's tcsh. I've tried using "hup" to correct it but to no avail. This problem wasn't present with ssh version 1 - it just seem to work. Now we get all kinds of abandoned ssh processes lying around that have to be manually killed. Does anyone know if there is going to be a fix for this problem

I don't know if this is still a problem in the latest snapshot, but with 2.9.9p2, if you do a "./configure ... --with-tcp-wrappers", there's no way to specify a location for tcpd.h and libwrap.a. This is troublesome on Solaris where you might install stuff like that in /opt/lib or /usr/local/lib or something that is not searched by default. Ed Ed Phillips <ed at

If I change openbsd-compt/readpassphrase.c and type "make" from the top-level, nothing happens. I have to remove openbsd-compat/libopenbsd-compat.a to get "make" to do its thing.

Can someone tell be briefly how to get OpenSSH3.1p1 configured and compiled to use /dev/random? Can OpenSSH use /dev/random directly now?

I've been doing so more tests with 2.9.9p2 on Sol8. Here are my finding so far: When a user needs to change his password and trys to run a command in non-interactive mode, it just succeeds without even trying to prompt the user for a new password. Damien submitted a fix - it works for me (is it going into CVS?). When a user needs to change his password and trys to login in interactive

I tried replacing readpassphrase() for v2.9.9p2 on Sol8 with a different version that just calls getpassphrase(). It appears to solve the echo problem when the user tries to login in interactive mode and needs to change their password. Can anyone else try this with v2.9.9p2 on Solaris?
