Hello all, I just noticed that AllowHosts feature of SSH Inc's sshd isn't there in OpenSSH yet. Has anyone been working on this? Am I the only one that seems to miss this feature? AllowUsers and AllowGroups is a very nice feature though :) -- Pekka Savola "Tell me of difficulties surmounted, Pekka.Savola at netcore.fi not those you stumble over and

Hello all, Compiling 2.1.1p1 on my RedHat Linux 6.2 w/ 2.2.16 kernel seems to cause errors from the start.. ---- gcc -O2 -m486 -fno-strength-reduce -Wall -DETCDIR=\"/etc/ssh\" -DSSH_PROGRAM=\"/usr/bin/ssh\" -DSSH_ASKPASS_DEFAULT=\"/usr/libexec/ssh/ssh-askpass\" -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -c -o bsd-base64.o bsd-base64.c In file included from defines.h:261, from

Hello all, It seems that RhostsAuthentication does not work on non-default port no matter what when connecting from OpenSSH (2.1.1, 2.2.0 tried) either with protocol 1 or protocol 2 (shouldn't work either..). _However_ when connecting with SSH.COM Ltd's ssh, RhostsAuthentication works just fine! Checking the port number of ssh client you can see that OpenSSH doesn't assign

Hello all, I just found a bug a nice bug that can be turned into a real feature on systems (usually Linux) that are built with --with-ipv4-default. If you enable IPv6 in kernel, and enable both listenaddress 0.0.0.0 and ::, sshd will error out 'address family not supported'. However, you can work around this error by starting sshd with 'sshd -4 -6'. As far as man page is

Hello all, I tried OpenSSH versions 2.1.1p4, 2.2.0p1 and the latest snapshot briefly on 64-bit Irix 6.5.7f an 6.5.9m. Both times, no matter what I do, I'll get 'PRNG initialization failed -- exiting'. This happens with ssh-keygen (the keys aren't even generated yet, ssh binary etc.) It's clear that Irix etc. don't have a proper entropy pool like *BSD and Linux do, but

Hello all, Using 20000930 snapshot on Irix 6.5.9m. SFTP connections with SSH 2.3.0 (Windows) die right out. Similar configuration and the same version works fine in Red Hat Linux 6.2. This is probably related to 'sftp' thread 7-10 days ago.

Hello all, OpenSSL 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 are incompatible, causing weird errors. I'd like to get a check for this in the RPMs. However, now I want to make sure whether anyone has experienced problems with RHL 0.9.5a OpenSSL libs vs. the 0.9.5a ones provided at openbsd.org? Ie: is it enough to check like '= 0.9.5a' or do you have to check '= 0.9.5a-xyz'. -- Pekka Savola

Hi, I built rpm from openssh-2.5.1p1 srpm on redhat 6.2, then installed it. When trying to ssh from other machine, sshd gives error: .....

Hello all, sshd configuration file options change from one release to another. If you forget updating sshd_config, sshd will not start. This is especially painful for update scripts etc. where you can't do e.g. 'sshd -p 2022' to see if it's okay. May I suggest some option, e.g. sshd -t, which would test config files and other obvious issues and return an errorcode if something

Hi, I'd like to bring this up again as there has been discussion about 2.4.0 patches. Getting something this big in would probably delay the release too much, but something similar should be considered for 2.5 then. A lot of people would like some control over port forwarding. Florian Weimer's patches (http://cert.uni-stuttgart.de/files/openssh/) are one, rather "big"

Hello all, Very recently, djm added compability patch so that aes/rijndael encryption problems could be avoided when talking to broken server/client; and you wouldn't have to toggle off the protocols yourself. Might this be a candidate for 2.5.2p2 or the like? This would be helpful when there are a lot of broken, 2.3.0 and like, systems. -- Pekka Savola "Tell me of

Hello all, I'm using the attached patch. With it, if you add OPTIONS="-6" in /etc/sysconfig/sshd (this kind of sysconfig/<name> is a pretty normal RHL practice), then you can enable ipv4 and ipv6 on RHL without problems and without having to modify the init.d/sshd script. This or something like should IMO be added. Removing 'noreplace' from sshd_config

ChangeLog: 20010429 - (bal) Updated INSTALL.

Hi, Running openssh-2.9p2 on Linux. If server is run with 'sshd -6' (to enable ipv6 easily on server end), ie all IPv4 are represented as mapped addresses, port forwarding will not work; just running plain ol' IPv4 fixes this of course. The server error, when forwarding from the client '143:localhost:143' and connecting to localhost 143 is: debug1:

OpenSSH gurus: Apologies if this has been covered already (or is a genuine FAQ). I've searched both Google and MARC extensively on this issue, and have come up empty. I use OpenSSH 3.0.2p1 (openssl-0.9.6c) on a group of Linux (Slackware 8.0, kernel 2.4.13, glibc 2.2.3) machines that have this in /etc/hosts: 10.1.1.2 s1 s1.[domain].com ... 10.1.1.6 s5 s5.[domain].com This is in

Damien-- Attached is a patch to contrib/redhat/sshd.init which eliminates the dependency on the success() and failure() functions from initscripts>=4.16. This allows sshd.init to be used for both early and recent releases of Red Hat Linux (i've confirmed it works on both 4.2 and 5.2 as well as 6.2). The patch also removes the 'Requires: initscripts >= 4.16' line from

SSH doesn't seem to be responding to me. The machine I am connecting to is running Linux, and I could connect to it fine from windows running the SSH client. But now I can no longer connect.
