similar to: Solved: on Solaris, "couldn't wait for child '...' completion: No child processes"

Trying to install the portable OpenSSH on Solaris 2.6. Compiling from openssh-2.1.0.tar.gz using gcc. Compiles and installs fine. sshd starts fine. First connection from another system works. Child sshd is forked, but the parent dies and logs: May 16 11:40:56 qtrade-dev sshd[6510]: error: Couldn't wait for child '/usr/bin/ ls -alni' completion: No child processes May 16 11:40:56

Hello, it's me again ! I tried to compile / install OpenSSH on our Reliant UNIX system, OS version 5.45 (and 5.44). The following problems did appear: 1. OpenSSL-0.9.5a will not compile out of the box. The problem on RU 5.45 is, that the compiler does support "long long" but NOT "unsigned long long". The latter just provokes the error message "superfluous

Hello ! I think a problem was introduced in openssh-2.3.0p1 which is still there in the latest openssh-2.5.2p1. I just noticed it before my vacation and could not send this mail earlier than today. The problem is: You can't use the Rhosts-RSA authentication based on the hosts.equiv file and the host keys. The only possible way to do rhosts-RSA authentication is to allow the usage of the

Hi ! To all: A Happy New Year ! During the last week I did some investigations why the X11 forwarding on Reliant UNIX Versions 5.44 and 5.45 does not work out of the box with OpenSSH-2.3.0p1. The result fo my investigation is: 1. The OpenSSH sshd opens a TCP/IP-port 6000 + display number and listens to it. This is fine and works with Solaris 7, DEC-OSF 4.0D, Linux and FreeBSD-4.2 but not

Hi ! I upgraded one of our Reliant UNIX systems from 2.1.1 to 2.3.0p1. Now, I suddenly can't login any more. The error message is: Attempting authentication for illegal user ... The reason is: Password expiration Although I don't use my password to login, at all. I login via RSAAuthentication and this did work with version 2.1.1. Version 2.3.0p1, obviously, checks the password

This to announce a test release of 2.1.0p1 before making it widely available. This release includes many fixes to problems reported over the last week. In particular: - spurious error and coredumps caused by the inbuilt entropy gathering - RSAref detection - Compilation fixes for Solaris and others It also contains (completely untested) support for compiling without RSA support. This may be

Hi, I am using Van Dyke SecureCRT 3.2.1 to access an AIX server running OpenSSH-2.5.0p1. Using ssh1 with X11 forwarding enabled, the server reports the following error (in the client session): Packet integrity error. (34) This problem was not evident in 2.3.0p1. Running sshd in debug gives the output: debug1: sshd version OpenSSH_2.5.1p1 debug1: load_private_key_autodetect: type 0 RSA1

Hi, I just tried building of OpenSSH-2.1.0 on HP-UX 10.20 and found the following items: - The configure command I used at the beginning: CC=cc CFLAGS="-Ae +O2 +DAportable" CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/s sl/include -I/usr/include/X11R6" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/ssl/lib -L/usr/lib/X11R6" ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/openssh

Hi, I'm running openssh 2.1.1p4 on Solaris 7 (sparc). Occationally, when I boot up the server, the startup script I wrote to start sshd fails to start sshd with the following error: fatal: Not enough entropy in RNG What am I doing wrong?? Is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening? Is just restarting sshd a valid thing to do?? Thanks for any thoughts, David

Maybe this is a ssh problem - but are you aware of the general issue ? http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=182 Summary: ssh should still force SIGCHLD to be SIG_DFL when calling ssh-rand-helper Product: Portable OpenSSH Version: 3.1p1 Platform: ix86 OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal

I am on Solaris 2.8 with openssh 2.3.0p1 and openssl 0.9.6. The remote machine is running ssh.com 1.2.20 and Solaris 2.6. I think the problem has to do with the 1.2.20 KeyRegeneration, because in the next hour I will beable to get into the machine ok with openssh and then later in the day I will not beable to ssh in again for another hour. ssh -v -v sa at myhost.com SSH Version OpenSSH_2.3.0p1,
