similar to: SIA support patches for Tru64 UNIX

I have recently written a (minimal) Tru64 Unix SIA password module for Dovecot as part of testing a Dovecot installation. Has anyone else written a Tru64 Unix SIA module? Is anyone else interested in such a module? If so, how might I/we go about getting this/such a module into the main Dovecot source? Thanks -- Simon L Jackson Carringbush.Net +- Carringbush.Net Hosting * Development *

I have "PermitRootLogin no" in my sshd_config, but under Tru64 and SIA, the root login attempts still get passed to the SIA system (so I get lots of warnings about failed root logins). On systems with a "max failed attempts" setting, the root account can be locked out this way. I started looking at the code, and I'm not sure I understand what I see. In auth-passwd.c,

I'm working on adding SIA authentication support to OpenSSH for use on Tru64 UNIX. The authentication bits are working but there's more work to be done including checking for locked accounts and setting resource limits. Anyway, most things seem to be working fine except for scp and I'm looking for a little help. Here's some output: % scp -v lopan:sl.tar . Executing: host lopan,

Is anyone currently working on adding support for Tru64 UNIX's enhanced security to OpenSSH?

Something really hosed Digital/Tru64 UNIX SIA support in 2.5.2p1. I haven't been able to figure out what changed in the code, but the symptom seems to be that the TTY name being registered with SIA is truncated to eight characters. This apparently prevents it from matching with entries in the tty database, and the dreaded "Cannot obtain database information on this terminal

Well, I had just finally gotten around to downloading a snapshot to test the latest on Tru64 a couple of days ago but hadn't had a chance to build it yet, and 3.7p1 has now been released. Sigh. The problem is that Tru64 setreuid() and setregid() are broken, so privsep doesn't work. This could also be a security problem for SIA authentication in general (any version of OpenSSH on Tru64,

Hi- Under privsep, I experimented with moving the session_setup_sia() out of do_child() and into do_setusercontext(), which is where the uids/gids are set to the final execution user. The call is made with a NULL tty, and this is functional provided that any later pty allocation uses grantpty() to set the device permissions. Logging in with this method shows that a utmp entry does get made for

I have found the following patches to be desirable for using sshd on a Tru64 UNIX system with the Kerberos 5 SIA module (libsia_krb5.so) from Heimdal. These patches do the following: 1) preserve context between the password authentication and the session setup phases. This is necessary because the Heimdal SIA module stores Kerberos context information as mechanism-specific data in

What do we loose by not having post-auth privsep? What code is executed between authorization and actual setting of the effective uid?

Hi All. There have recently (well, today :-) been changes to OpenSSH Portable's auth-passwd.c from OpenBSD to accomodate forced changes of expired passwords. (Rabid password expirers shoulon't get excited yet, it's currently bsdauth only, but support for other platforms should start trickling in shortly). As part of that, some individual platforms have gained their own

The recent patch posted by Steve VanDevender <stevev at darkwing.uoregon.edu> for fixing the session code on Tru64 isn't quite right -- it still fails in the case of NO tty being allocated. The problem is that s->tty is a char[TTYSZ] rather than a char *, and hence can't hold a NULL. Calling sia_ses_init() with the tty being an empty string doesn't signify no tty, and

Is the following (from configure.in) intended: *-dec-osf*) if test ! -z "USE_SIA" ; then AC_MSG_CHECKING(for Digital Unix Security Integration Architecture) should that be "$USE_SIA" or similar or what is the point of testing a constant string for being zero length... The reason I ask is the for complex reasons we don't want SIA enabled on Tru64 since it breaks some

Either this never made it to the list or no one cares about Tru64. This is the last time I'll send this patch to the list. If no one steps up and finishes it or provides me with enough information to fix any remaining bugs (one being complaint that 'ssh site cmd' does not work right). If there is no activity on this for a week. I'll post it to bugzilla and will ignore any

OK, I got a chance to try out the Tru64 patch for privsep. I applied the patch to 3.4p1. Partial success, in that it now works for me for logins to "root". Logins to ordinary accounts fail after authentication, when trying to set tty characteristics. See the excerpt from the debug messages below. This is for Tru64 V4.0F (with enhanced_security turned on, obviously.) I guess it's time

Tru64 patch will not make it into 3.5 (this is final) due to lack of willing people to test. I have given the Tru64/osf1 community almost a month to test it. And *ONE* person came forward to give me verification. And don't give me shit about "I don't have time." The person who tested it was LEAVING his employer with Tru64. He found time. IT IS YOUR GAWD DAMN PLATFORM. IF

A while back, I sent in a patch that added Digital Unix SIA authentication to OpenSSH. Well, I just figured out that it didn't handle everything correctly (locked accounts could still log in). I thought I had checked that, but I guess I missed it. Anyway, here is a patch against OpenSSH 2.2.0p1 that fixes this. -- Chris Adams <cmadams at hiwaay.net> Systems and Network Administrator
