similar to: NeXT // Broken _POSIX_SAVED_ID patch

Linux has just raised the NGROUPS_MAX limit from 32 to 64k. In doing an audit of various tools, openssh turned up as having incorrect groups handling. Almost no user-space apps really care about NGROUPS_MAX. A proposed patch (untested, since the CVS build won't compile on my RH box.. :-/) : What think? Index: uidswap.c ===================================================================

I am enclosing a context diff of the changes that I made to get openssh working on UWIN. UWIN is a UNIX operating system layer that runs on Win32 systems. For more information on UWIN go to http://www.research.att.com/sw/tools/uwin/. I also ran configure using -with-cppflags=-D_BSDCOMP=2. I don't know where that information would go with the source code. Let me know if you need more

Currently openssh (3.4p1) relies on the NGROUPS_MAX define. This makes the number of allowed simultaneous (per-user) secondary groups a compile-time decision. $ find . -name \*.c | xargs grep NGROUPS_MAX ./groupaccess.c:static char *groups_byname[NGROUPS_MAX + 1]; /* +1 for base/primary group */ ./groupaccess.c: gid_t groups_bygid[NGROUPS_MAX + 1]; ./uidswap.c:static gid_t

Hello Porters, I've finally (thanks to Wendy Palm of Cray) ported OpenSSH to Dynix v4.4.4. I had to make sure that "UseLogin" was set to "no" in the sshd_config file. Also, here are the old-style contextual diffs (obtained with 'diff -c' on the Dynix box) of the two files I had to change: *** configure Sat Jun 16 17:09:50 2001 --- configure.new Mon Oct 8

Hello, I was trying to build a chrooted sftp account when I faced a problem. The chroot is done with the patch present in the contrib subdirectory in the portable version (I'm under linux slackware current). My problem is that verifying access rights on directories and files are too tight and then I couldn't have the following things : The user sftp, with primary group sftp, is chrooted

openssh-2.9.9p2 assumes that pid_t, uid_t, gid_t, and mode_t are no wider than int. GCC complains about this assumption on 32-bit Solaris 8 sparc, where these types are 'long', not 'int'. This isn't an actual problem at runtime on this host, as long and int are the same width, but it is a problem on other hosts where pid_t is wider than int. E.g., I've heard that 64-bit

Hi, the below patch drops another test for uid 0 on Cygwin. It's embarassing that I never found it. Actually temporarily_use_uid never worked on Cygwin due to that. So far that had no influence, but now that we have activated another feature which makes Cygwin more POSIX-like, somebody on the Cygwin list found that agent forwarding didn't work anymore. The reason is that due to the

If we can get people to test their platforms against the last snapshot/cvs tree I'd be greatful. (http://www.openssh.com/portable.html) I know NeXT platform has problems. I'm going to spend tonight looking at it. Also, take a moment to see what manpage type ./configure decided for your system and if it's 'cat' please let us know. Thanks. - Ben

Hello Porters, I am attempting to compile OpenSSH 2.9.9p2 on a Dynix V4.4.4 host. I have set USE_PIPES and BROKEN_SAVED_UIDS (the latter because there are no functions for set{eu,eg}id() that I can find). I configured with "./configure '--with-libs=-lnsl -lsec'". Each time I attempt to login, I get this error: No utmp entry. You must exec "login" from

Hi, I'm a developer of a static analysis tool canalyze. Recently I applied it to Openssh-6.2p1. It seems some reports are real after by manually checking: 1.

Hi, the following patches are in the NetBSD packages collection to get OpenSSH 1.2.2 going. Changes: * /dev/urandom may be there but not in the kernel - make sure * Pull in some more headers needed by configure * Add proper ld-flags for ELF platforms * Some code cleanup * Install example files always to a different dir, and use out build system to DTRT WRT getting them to /etc.

Here's a unified diff, proposed by Christos Zoulas (with a little reworking to get the configure.in part a bit cleaner). The main target of the patches are NetBSD compatability, although there are some changes making if (pointer X) into if (X != NULL) as well. Christos also proposed a change to Makefile.in, but I'll send that as a seperate mail. Thanks, David Index: configure.in
