When I feed a bogus hostname to rsync, it reports "Undefined error". It would be useful if instead it would say something more informative, like "Host not found". Thanks for rsync!

Has anyone considered using Markdown.pl or PHPME as an Apache handler for Markdown files? It would be very slick to post straight .text files and have them rendered behind the scenes, although for high traffic sites pre-rendering would obviously be much more efficient. I suppose I'd also want an escape hatch like daringfireball.net's, perhaps disabling rendering if the URL includes

Hi! I have just made the 0.9.0 release of PRNGD available. PRNGD is the Pseudo Random Number Generator Daemon. It has an EGD compatible interface and is designed to provide entropy on systems not having /dev/*random devices. Software supporting EGD style entropy requests are openssh, Apache/mod_ssl, Postfix/TLS... Automatic querying of EGD sockets at fixed locations has been introduced in the

I have a need to have the same OpenSSH binaries run on multiple machines which are administered by different people. That means on Solaris, for example, there will be some with /dev/random, some on which I can run prngd because they'll be installing my binaries as root, and some which will have neither because they will be only installed as non-root. Below is a patch to enable choosing all 3

Hello all, I was finally able to create the OpenSSH package for Solaris 8 10/01. The problem I have now is that I will still need to have entropy ready prior to openssh-3.1p1 package installation. Otherwise there is no entropy pool available (with the new servers) and key generation fails. With the previous versions of openssh, I used SUN's "makeOpenSSHPackage.ksh" script and was

[NOTE: I'm new to this list and this is my first approach to OpenSSH code.] I've enhanced "--with-prngd-port=PORT" flag to accept an optional hostname as in "myhost:myport", e.g.: % ./configure --with-prngd-port=example.com:12345 Although I'm certain that this may cause big trouble if remote gatherer isn't online (ssh will refuse to open any connection) I

Hi. I recently snookered myself: I build OpenSSH on an old box that didn't have /dev/random, but happened to be running prngd at the time for other reasons. Because I wanted to use commands, I configured --with-rand-helper, however configure found the prngd socket and built ssh-rand-helper to use it exclusively. Next reboot: no prngd, no random seed, no sshd. Do not log in, do not

There are a couple of issues regarding egd support in OpenSSH. 1) SIGPIPE is not ignored for the master listener daemon. I put the signal() call early on since it needs to be before get_random_bytes() is called but it could also be placed in the EGD version of get_random_bytes(). For some reason, with prngd I am getting SIGPIPE even though the prngd processes is not dying.

Bugzilla is reporting an internal server error right now so I thought I'd post this here. The current portable OpenSSH developer CVS has some non-standard shell syntax in the --with-prngd-socket case, and the grep "-q" option is not supported in at least Solaris 2.5.1. Here's a patch. Alternatively, the first test could use case "$withval" in /*) ;; *)

I have successfully compiled OpenSSH 3.1p1 for the following systems: Solaris 8 Solaris 7 Irix 6.5.14 Irix 6.5.4 SunOS 4.1.3_U1 Unfortunately, the new sshd is not working on any of the above systems with the exception of Solaris 7. (I then put the Solaris 7 executables on Solaris 8, and they worked there too.) This is the error I'm getting: $ /usr/etc/sshd -D -d -d -d debug3: Seeing PRNG

If it were not for the latest security bulletins strongly suggesting we upgrade, I would reinstall the 2.3.0p1 version. I am running on a SGI
