-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have just uploaded 1.2.1pre18. This is mainly merges from the OpenBSD tree, bugfixes for Solaris and libc5 Linux systems. It should fix all reported bugs except the snprintf problems on some older Solaris versions. Please test thoroughly, my hope is to have a stable version released before Jan 1. At this point the main holdup is Solaris. I have

I just tried, on a whim, to use an OpenSSH client vs SSH 1.2.26 client, and I can connect with it... Something drastic change between pre23 and pre24? Then again, I can't get pre23 to work anymore either, after further investigation :( OpenSSH clients connect no problem, just not the old SSH 1.2.26 clients ... Marc G.

Attached is a small patch that should fix most of the problems reported. I am adding a recommendation to use GNU make to the INSTALL document.

Hello, I've managed to get around the undefined paths in openssh-1.2pre14 on solaris, but now I'm stuck without an implementation of snprintf and vsnprintf. Is there a library I can download or a way to #define the functions into compatibility? Thanks, --Henry

Okay, we think we've resolved them all now *wipe brow* There were two outstanding problems... Problem 1: The config file has two directives in it: IgnoreRhosts RhostsAuthentication Without realizing it, even though I had IgnoreRhosts set to 'no', RhostsAuthentication was set to 'no' also, so it didn't matter ... This appears to fix the authentication issue of last

Okay, everything as the first large one I sent today, with a few extra mods. _PATH_MAILDIR is only used in sshd.c, that I can see, so moved the #ifdef from config.h.in to there. several files had __progname defined in the middle of the code, as well as at the top of the code, so cleaned those out. all the fixes for u_int32_t -> uint32_t and u_int16_t -> uint16_t, plus added appropriate

This is to announce the availability of portable OpenSSH-2.1.0p2. This is a bug-fix release, addressing the following issues: - X authentication works again (thanks to Markus Friedl) - Don't touch utmp if utmpx is in use - Fix SIGCHLD problems on AIX and HPUX (Thanks to Tom Bertelson) - HPUX compile fixes (Thanks to Lutz Jaenicke) - Accept an empty shell in /etc/passwd - SunOS4 compile fixes.

I have just uploaded a test release of portable openssh to http://violet.ibs.com.au/openssh/files/test This release includes some major changes picked up from OpenBSD CVS. It also includes inbuilt random number gathering support which should remove the need for EGD on systems that lack /dev/random. This support is very preliminary. Please treat it as alpha and don't use it on production

I have some troubles with subj and proper utmpx/wtmpx functionality. After successfull ssh connect to Solaris 8 box, I run #w 11:59am up 13:45, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.01, 0.02 User tty login@ idle JCPU PCPU what root console 11:43am 9 bash # Record about my pts/1 login is absent. Next command I run from Solaris 8 console

When making success / failure reports, could you please include the 'host system type' as reported by configure. Reports in this format can be processed with uniq :) So far I have success reports from: sparc-sun-solaris2.7 sparc-sun-solaris2.8 hppa2.0-hp-hpux10.20 mips-sgi-irix5.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu Missing: SunOS 4.x HP/UX 11 NeXT SCO SNI/Reliant Unix -- | "Bombay is 250ms

Right out of the box (after I made Damien's LDFLAGS fix in configure) using gcc-2.95.2. The only problem I have now is the man pages. I still can't read them using Solaris nroff, and when I tried to build with --with-catman=cat, I got the following during a make install: /rtr/bin/install -c -m 644 ssh.[01].out /usr/local/man/cat1/ssh.1 Try `/rtr/bin/install --help' for more

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

Hi. Pre15 compiles out-of-the-box on AIX 4.3.2 ...almost. No patch included this time, but the following were the gotchas: - The __P() prototyping doesn't work (as discussed earlier) - bsd-daemon.o wasn't linked into libssh.a (though configure seemed to detect the need for it) DCE patch will follow shortly.

Has anyone had any experience with ssh and DG/UX? I tried the ./configure and it could not determine the hosttype. After that problem was worked-arounded I get a LOT of warnings about declaring functions multiple times and then the compile fails with: packet.c: In function `packet_set_interactive': packet.c:803: `IPTOS_LOWDELAY' undeclared (first use this function) packet.c:803: (Each
