similar to: duplicate log entries

I've noticed rather strange wtmp logging behavior in sshd. Can anyone confirm or solve the following: Once a user authenticates themself to sshd, sshd among other things records the login in the wtmp, which `last` reads. However, sshd logs hostnames which are longer than 16 characters instead of IPs like normal programs would. As a result, I have useless entries such as: tempest

I am using the "UseLogin yes" configuration parameter to call the /usr/bin/login program on SGI Irix, (we are using Irix version 6.5.13). I do this because the SGI login program is AFS awhere and checks out a token for you and I do not want to compile the Kerberos version of sshd, (it is to messy for me to support). Everything seems to work fine accept the wtmp(x) and utmp(x) files do

Hello Ive downloaded OpenSSH 4.1p1 from the portable openssh web pages... Compiled it up for an AIX 5.1 host (with latest IBM maintenance patches applied) using defaults in all cases. When doing a successful SSH authentication it places an entry into /etc/security/failedlogin as well as /var/adm/wtmp Ive also tried adding "UseLogin yes" to the sshd_config PAM ISNT configured (infact

Hello all, I enabled UseLogin briefly on my homegrown Redhat Linux 6.2 system. Redhat's 'login' is in /bin/login, not /usr/bin/login. Perhaps this check should be moved to autoconf rather than #define'd. I also noticed that it creates "duplicate" 'last' entries: ---- esa pts/1 x.y.z.159 Thu Jul 20 07:56 still logged in esa pts/1

I'm using openssh 2.5.2p2 on Solaris-x86 2.6. I ran into a couple problems when I set UseLogin to "yes": The big one seems to have been reported before: login refuses to run without a utmpx entry. This problem appears to have been caused by the changes in revision 1.24 of session.c. Before this revision, the record_login() function was always called, no matter how UseLogin was

Attached is the latest version of my UseLogin patch that makes "UseLogin true" work on Solaris and UNICOS. As usual, I have provided configure.in changes that set the appropriate defines for Solaris, but I have not provided the configure.in changes for UNICOS (since they would be incomplete, and Wendy is working on this). This version fixes a problem with the last-login time always

I was having problems getting the UseLogin option to work on Solaris. I would recieve this error: No utmpx entry. You must exec "login" from the lowest level "shell". This led me to believe that Solaris login wants a utmpx entry in order to function. I put together a patch that calls record_login on Solaris when using the system login. I also noticed that writing a wtmpx

Hi all! wtmp entries are generated when loggin into a system without a command, e.g. "ssh -l user system". When using an additional command executed by ssh on the "other side", no wtmp entry will be generated. So the command "ssh -l user system /bin/csh" will not generate a wtmp entry but the user is logged in ... I have the problem right know. The users are starting

Hello All, Im using OpenSSH 4.2p1. Suppose I disable non-root logins to my system through /etc/nologin file, SSH writes an entry for the non-root user in wtmp file. This is because the writing in wtmp file happens in parent process where checking of nologin file happens in the child one. I like to know whether we should put an entry in wtmp file for such denied logins. Any comments will be

Using UseLogin on a system that has to twiddle utmpx before calling login currently also twiddles wtmpx, and this causes problems on Solaris in the "last" log. Changing the source to avoid modifying wtmpx when also modifying utmpx fixes things up nicely: Index: loginrec.c --- loginrec.c 2001/05/08 20:33:06 1.33 +++ loginrec.c 2001/06/06 17:14:25 @@ -456,9 +456,10 @@ # endif # ifdef

OpenSSH's UseLogin option allows remote access with root privilege. 1. Systems affected: The default installation of OpenSSH is not vulnerable, since UseLogin defaults to 'no'. However, if UseLogin is enabled, all versions of OpenSSH prior to 2.1.1 are affected. 2. Description: If the UseLogin option is enabled the OpenSSH server (sshd)

A while back, I posted to the freebsd-questions list about a problem I was having getting custom MAIL environment variable settings in /etc/login.conf to take. Something had happened between FreeBSD 3.3 and 4.2 that caused MAIL to always be set to /var/mail/$USER. It turns out this was a problem with the sshd configuration. The problem was apparently related to the fact OpenSSH's sshd is now
