Regarding /tmp/random: Someone has made the same quick&dirty fix as my AIX compile fix, for a lack of /dev/urandom. ssh expects some random bytes to be available in that file. I, or someone else should probably create a more portable way of generating entropy. ;) //Tor-?ke >From: Niels Provos <provos at outguess.org> >To: openssh-unix-dev at mindrot.org >Subject: Fwd: Re:

Hi. I'm attempting to setup a box here to be a file-server for all my data. I'm attempting to resize an ext3 partition to demonstrate this capability to myself before fully committing to this system as the primary data storage. I'm having some problems resizing an ext3 filesystem after I've resized the underlying logical volume. Following the ext3 resize, fsck spits out lots

Hello everyone, I am trying to PXE boot my Acer Aspire G3-773G laptop. It uses UEFI, so I load 64bit syslinux.efi (v6.03) and it automatically loads ldlinux.e64. All is fine. But when I want to use cmenu.c32 (with UI cmenu.c32 in the config file), the loader downloads: * cmenu.c32 * libmenu.c32 * libcom32.c32 * libutil.c32 Then syslinux reports: "unable to load cmenu.c32:

I seem to have gotten past one hurdle and on to the next. It seems that the problem that I was having relates to poorly documented changes in the config files in the HOWTO. I now have /root/.wine/config which seems to solve the old drive problem. However, here is my new error.

My reading of the kernel.src.rpm doesn't indicate that Severn has ext3 htree patches. Stephen, were there any issues seen during Cerberus testing ? Regards, Yusuf -- Yusuf Goolamabbas yusufg@outblaze.com

Hello tinc fans, I'm looking around for a VPN solution. The situation is as follows: The central office, with a cable modem and 1 IP address, connected to the intranet through a linux firewall/router. At home I just have a modem, and a dynamic IP dialup provider. Is there any way that I can automate connecting from a dynamic IP address with tinc? -- Reinier

Hi, when running OpenSSH with EGD as entropy source, the sshd server connects to the EGD socket and leaves it open to re-seed on the fly. Unfortunately the connection is not checked when re-seeding, so that a failure or restart of EGD will lead to a "fatal()" abort of the sshd server process. Since a dying server process can not be accepted, I would recommend to not have sshd call it

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

Short question: is it possible to share entropy across all VMs and how can this be done? I found http://vanheusden.com/entropybroker/ which seems to offer a way, but I cannot get it to work, syslog tells me "stack smashing detected". So if there are ways people are currently using I''d be interested to hear them. Currently I find that even generating a gpg key on a PV VM takes

The usual suspects: Solaris 8 gcc 2.95.2 perl 5.60 egd 0.7 openssl 0.95.a openssh 1.2.3 # egd.pl /etc/entropy --- It works the first few minutes and then just stops working. OpenSSH connections started still work, ssh just hangs with a new connection. I've even tried --bottomless; no joy. 0.6 and Solaris 7 worked great. I'm going to try the /dev/random that was mentioned before. Any

I did this as a project back in the early 2002, and I had a nice little how-to to walk me through it. Many work places and moves, and I've lost it. I have a friend who asked me about this recently, and I can't seem to find anything on the web, or the how-to I used (not surprised). If I remember correctly, you needed an up-to-date zlib, egd (or prng), OpenSSL, tcpwrappers, and OpenSSH.

With the help of Jan Iven I have been able to compile openssh-2.9.9p2 on Solaris 2.6 with AFS/kerb4 support using gcc. ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc/ssh --with-tcp-wrappers \ --with-egd-pool=/var/run/egd-pool \ --with-kerberos4=/usr/athena --with-afs=/usr/afsws to do this I modified the resulting Makefile, from: CPPFLAGS=-I. -I$(srcdir) -I/usr/local/ssl/include
