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

Hi, with current test releases SSL doesn't work anymore for me on AIX 4.3 with dovecot-0.99.10-test14. It worked with 0.99.9.1. dovecot: Jun 23 19:42:23 Info: Dovecot starting up imap-login: Jun 23 19:42:25 Fatal: RAND_bytes() failed: error:24064064:random number generator:SSLEAY_RAND_BYTES:PRNG not seeded imap-login: Jun 23 19:42:25 Fatal: RAND_bytes() failed: error:24064064:random number

I've had fairly good sucecss with the portable OpenSSH 2.1.1p1 on Irix 6.2. There's one major nit, and a few things that configure got wrong. I'm kinda deep in real work at the moment, so I don't have time to delve heavily, but since configure specifically asked for feedback on this port, I'm obliging. The biggest problem I've run into so far is in the builtin PRNG

I have successfully compiled OpenSSH 3.1p1 for the following systems: Solaris 8 Solaris 7 Irix 6.5.14 Irix 6.5.4 SunOS 4.1.3_U1 Unfortunately, the new sshd is not working on any of the above systems with the exception of Solaris 7. (I then put the Solaris 7 executables on Solaris 8, and they worked there too.) This is the error I'm getting: $ /usr/etc/sshd -D -d -d -d debug3: Seeing PRNG

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

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.

Hi! I have just made the 0.9.0 release of PRNGD available. PRNGD is the Pseudo Random Number Generator Daemon. It has an EGD compatible interface and is designed to provide entropy on systems not having /dev/*random devices. Software supporting EGD style entropy requests are openssh, Apache/mod_ssl, Postfix/TLS... Automatic querying of EGD sockets at fixed locations has been introduced in the

[NOTE: I'm new to this list and this is my first approach to OpenSSH code.] I've enhanced "--with-prngd-port=PORT" flag to accept an optional hostname as in "myhost:myport", e.g.: % ./configure --with-prngd-port=example.com:12345 Although I'm certain that this may cause big trouble if remote gatherer isn't online (ssh will refuse to open any connection) I

Just for peace of mind, can someone who knows the openssh code better than I do, confirm that openssh doesn't use (in any circumstances) the openssl prng (since the code in versions prior to 0.9.6b is rather weak). My understanding is that it doesn't (using either /dev/random, egd, prngd or the builtin code), but I may have missed some other use of the openssl prng elsewhere... -- Jon

I'm having a bit of trouble generating a host key on an x86 Solaris 8 system. I've gotten the following built and installed: egd-0.7 openssl-0.9.5a openssh-1.2.3 My perl version is 5.005_03. egd is running, and tests fine the egd "make test" and with: #./egd.pl /etc/entropy get 22 sources found forking into background... server starting But when I go to "make

Hi, just built 2.3.0p1 on HP-UX 10.20 more or less smoothly >From 1.2.3 I had documented --without-lastlog, can't remember why, broke something. So I tried my old configure settings for 2.3.0 which seams to break stuff: loginrec.c:1338: warning: `struct lastlog' declared inside parameter list some more dereferencing pointers and then Error 1 [of course] Omitting the

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'm trying to configure and build the current bits from the CVS tree, I've used autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.52 to generated configure from the configure.ac file. When I run configure on Solaris 9 I get a failure thus: $ ./configure .... checking for OpenSSL directory... /usr/local/ssl checking for RSA support... yes checking whether OpenSSL's headers match the library... yes checking

Hi, We are trying to get OpenSSH-1.2.2 stable release to compile under Solaris 2.3 Sparc. It worked perfect for Solaris 2.5, Solaris 2.5.1, Solaris 7 (All on Sparc) and Linux 2.2.13 Intel x86 OpenSSL installs fine without problem, zlib is installed fine without problems and egd.pl installs fine without problems. These are all the current releases, I can get the version numbers if you need

Hello, I just installed the above openssh onto a Sun Solaris 7 and Solaris 8 system. No problem with that. However, I now seem to get some rubbish processed when I login with slogin. An example: Last login: Tue Jun 13 12:31:27 2000 from jhorne.csd.plymo:tJ` ^[[?1;2c Telnet logs in okay, but just shows 'Last login...jhorne.csd.plymo'. This seems to get passed to the shell, which it of
