I am not going to put my 2 cents in about added features. I just appreciate the reams of technical support the OpenBSD developers offers us for the code they give us for free. $400 for an F-Secure license? I have my OpenSSH T-shirt! My request will add zero bytes to the OpenSSH code base, not even in the contribs directory. Could the subject lines on the mailing list begin with something like

Hi, In a mail about two weeks ago, I brought up an idea: --- How SSH makes this easier is that you only have to sync the authorized_keys2 database to root account's .ssh/ every time new admin comes in/leaves the house. This can even be automatized rather easily. A more modular hack would be using authorized_keys2 _directory_, and the keys in there would all be counted as authorized. Thus

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: .....

Hi, I have a small patch here which changes the Cygwin README file so that the following fact is mentioned. OpenSSH never uses $HOME to search for user config files but the value in the pw_dir field in /etc/passwd. This might be of minor interest for generic U*X folks but that's an important fact for Cygwin users. When /etc/passwd is automatically created under WinNT/2K it uses the values

Is there any work going into placing keys in a central directory such as LDAP ? Jeff McElroy jmcelroy at dtgnet.com

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

Hi, the following patch fixes a potential security hole in the Cygwin version of sshd. If you're logging in to a Cygwin sshd with version 2 protocol using an arbitrary user name which is not in /etc/passwd, the forked sshd which is handling this connection crashes with a segmentation violation. The client side encounters an immediate disconnect ("Connection reset by peer").

Hi, Here's a problem in openssh, some logs, and a very minor patch that cures this: Issue: (open)ssh client WILL NOT talk to F secure SSH-2.0-2.1.0pl2 client S/W version: openssh-2.3.0p1 client O/S version: SunOS 5.7 Generic_106541-11 sun4u sparc server S/W version: SSH-2.0-2.1.0pl2 server O/S version: SunOS 5.7 Generic_106541-11 sun4u sparc Log/Details: : % telnet <mymachine> 22

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

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, 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

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. PCRE moved to a new place. - (djm) Release OpenSSH-2.9p1 However, OpenSSH 2.9p1 is not on the official FTP sites, at least yet? -- Pekka Savola "Tell me of difficulties surmounted, Netcore Oy not those you stumble over and fall" Systems.

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

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:

I'm getting minor reports from the EFNET irc channel I hang out that ./configure fails to find OpenSSL. However ./configure --with-pam successed. The config.log hints to the fact that -ldl is not included when one does not use --with-pam. Can I get conformation on this? It does not occur on Redhat 7.0. - Ben
