similar to: [2.2.0p1] unable to restart sshd remotely

Hi, I noticed one small possible error in the openssh-2.3.0p1/contrib/redhat/sshd.init script. In the stop option: stop) echo -n "Shutting down sshd: " if [ -f $PID_FILE ] ; then killproc sshd [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && rm -f /var/lock/subsys/sshd fi echo

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

Hello, I was wondering about the feasibility of including a startup script for icecast for redhat/fedora installs? I've had to do an rpm install on an fc4 box, and a source install, rpms couldn't be found for an rh9 machine, yah i know that's old. And in both cases i had to drop in a custom-made startup script, see below. I was wondering esepcially in the case of the rpm, and

I just installed Tomcat and when I run the chkconfig -add tomcat, it tells me that tomcat does not support chkconfig.

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

Hello all, A few days ago I noticed that the following seems to happen when upgradign OpenSSH on Linux-based (/etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd) based systems: - sshd is restarted with 'sshd restart'; however sshd serving in port 22 is not replaced. - you have to kill the old one (netstat -ltp | grep :ssh ; kill ...) first, then restart sshd. - This might happen only when performing the upgrade

I've cleaned up Pekka Savola's newly revised sshd.init and additional sshd-functions and modified them to work they way i've been arguing they should work. Compatibility functions are defined in ./contrib/redhat/sshd-functions, which should get installed no matter what release of Red Hat Linux OpenSSH is getting built for, to be consistent across releases. Specific changes from

Hi all: I'm trying to compile OpenSSH 2.2.0p1 on an Origin 2000 running Irix 6.5.9 and when I run ./configure it didn't detect the OpenSSL libraries. I compile/install OpenSSL 0.9.6. The installation was done using prefix /usr/local/ssl. I test the binaries and they are working fine. Then, when I try to configure the Openssh ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/ssh

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, There are two issues in OpenSSH RPM Red Hat spec file (against 2.2.0p1): 1. /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd uses 'success' and 'failure'. These don't work in Red Hat 5.2; else the spec file is fine. Initscripts requirement (for the one in RH60) added. 2. If you're upgrading over SSH ltd's ssh-server, the server will be stopped and sshd removed from chkconfig

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, 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, 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, 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:

Hey folks. Sorry for the SUPER long email but if you''ve been experiencing the same problems with restarting your mongrel cluster with Capistrano, then I have two solutions that have worked for me and I''m pretty sure will for you as well. THE PROBLEM I was having trouble restarting my clusters using Capistrano. I''ve seen this come up before on the mailing list and

I''m using the mongrel_cluster recipes for Capistrano as laid out by codahale.com and the new ed. of the Agile Development book, but I''m having problems on restart and stop: I can start: [root current]# mongrel_rails cluster::start Starting 3 Mongrel servers... And I can see 3 processes running: [root current]# ps aux | grep mongrel mongrel 1947 0.0 8.2 24684 10776 ?

Hello, Thank you for your development of Mongrel, great job. :) I am using mongrel_cluster, but I have a problem where my rails application name includes a "." such as mydomain.com, which causes an error when generating the PID file for mongrel. I have attached below a diff of the current working copy in the trunk and the changes I made to overcome this problem. I kept your

I need a way to kill the ferret_server drb process programatically, so I can start/stop it as part of the capistrano deployment process. This should be as simple as adding some sort of stop method to ActsAsFerret::Remote::Server. I was just messing around and was able to do it by modifying method_missing to look for the :stop method and then calling DRb.thread.exit -- this is not good enough for

This patch adds a new option to sshd, chroot_users. It has the effect of chroot()ing incoming ssh users to their home directory. Note: this option does not work if UsePrivilegeSeparation is enabled.
