similar to: [Bug 908] AIX OpenSSH allows too many failing login attempts

I've pulled this down with Firefox, wget, a bittorrent client and an ftp client using Windows as well as Linux hosts. Is something wrong with the distributed DVD image? It has failed an MD5 check every time I've pulled it down.

Under AIX there are three security settings: expires = a fixed date at which an account is no longer valid maxage= weeks before a password expires maxexpires=max weeks during which a password can be changed by a user after expiration AFTER WHICH ACCESS IS NOT ALLOWED Beauty of maxage with expires is, that no manual intervention is required to block inactive users. With maxage=5 and expires=1 an

Hi All, I have found that the regression tests on AIX failed as a non-root user. This is due to a call to loginrestrictions() failing. The man page for loginrestrictions says: "Access Control:The calling process must have access to the account information in the user database and the port information in the port database." These files are: /etc/security/user,

When compiling R on Windows, I am getting the following error.

Hi All. This patch moves the AIX-specific loginrestrictions() test and associated code to port-aix.c and replaces it with a generic hook (in case any other platforms need this kind of functionality).

Greetings list, I'm using samba 3.0.23a on a Fedora Core 5 system in a member server role in an Active Directory domain (security ads). My problem is that, although wbinfo -u and -g work great and can pull user and group lists respectively from AD, getent passwd and getent group do not. I've configured passwd: files winbind and group: files winbind in nsswitch.conf, and have

Hi, I am in the process of linking a C/C++ application to the R.dll directly. I have obtained the R source code and compiled it successfully. I have also successfully linked the R.dll directly into our application and have made calls successfully into the R.dll that are included in the sample rtest.c and in the "Writing R Extensions - The R API". The R functionality that we are

After loading the RODBC package version 1.1-7, Ctrl-C changes its behaviour and is quitting R and returning to the (unix-)command prompt on the solaris2.8 platform here.

Hi All. With one eye on the do_pam_chauthtok() stuff I've merged contributions by Pablo Sor and Mark Pitt into a patch against -current. I'm interested in testers and suggestions for improvements. The patch extends the loginrestrictions test to include expired accounts (but unlike Mark's patch, doesn't log accounts with expired passwords unless they're locked) and adds

Hi, I noticed that the AIX specific loginsuccess call uses char *aixloginmsg to retrieve login information. Later this message is printed in session.c (around line 753). Loginsuccess mallocs space for this message and according to the aix docs it's the responsibility of the calling program to free this message. I didn't notice any code in openssh that would free the aixloginmsg. Can

Courtesy follow up back to the unix-dev list (mainly for those like me who searched the archives) Thanks to the very swift response of Darren, a patched auth.c did the trick Patch enclosed below (apply after the p20) I'm guessing he'll either update p20 or issue p21 soon.

Hi All. I've decided to try to merge the -Portable parts of the password expiry patch (see bug #14) that do not depend on the OpenBSD change in bug #463. The attached patch is the first step in this process. It removes the AIX-specific "char *aixloginmsg" and replaces it with a platform-neutral "Buffer loginmsg". I think this is worth having in -Portable even if it

Hi Folks, While compiling and testing openssh-2.5.2p2 on various AIX platforms, I've found that ssh will not accept root (based on ssh key credentials) logins at all if the AIX security features have been set to disallow remote root logins. If I disable the AIX security feature (enable remote root logins), I can then do bad things like rsh, telnet, etc. into the box as root. This deviates

Has anyone else running AIX tried this patch? I'm looking for feedback if it should be applied before we release 2.9p1. - Ben ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 17:22:02 -0800 (AKDT) From: mikem at alaska.net To: openssh-unix-dev at mindrot.org Subject: Functionality bug (possibly) in openssh on AIX 4.3 Hi Folks, While compiling and testing openssh-2.5.2p2 on
