similar to: Ported OpenSSH 2.9.9p2 to Dynix

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

Ok, for those running NeXT and other platforms with broken/missing _POSIX_SAVED_ID please try this patch, and anyone that has spent any amount of time dealing with this problem. I believe it's right. BTW, this patch is no where near as big as it looks. The patch was done against an earily version of the tree which had an issue with white space. - Ben --- ../openssh/uidswap.c Sun Apr 22

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

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?

Greetings - In trying to get rsync-2.5.6pre1 working on DYNIX/ptx, I found I needed to pass ac_cv_lib_inet_connect=no to configure in order for it actually create a properly configured config.h file. I think this is because configure looks for connect in libinet, (and finds one there somehow). But connect() is resolved by libsocket (but configure doesn't find it when

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

Am currently attempting to upgrade from Samba 2.0.3 to 2.2.2 on a Sequent Quad Processor (IBM, NUMA-Q) box running PTS4/Dynix. Every time I try to do the configure from the source it stops with a message saying 'Checking for test routines... configure: error: cant find test code. Aborting config'. Has anyone any experience with this, or a similar error on other 'nix. Thanks Terry

Hello there, I am trying to build OpenSSH on the above (very old) version of unix. With a bit of hacking, I have managed to get everything to compile and run. Scp works fine however when I log in via ssh I end up with a session without a controlling terminal. I have followed the code in pty_make_controlling_tty and it seems to go as follows: 1. Starts with a controlling tty. 2. setsid works,

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

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

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.

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

Hello, would it be possible to update config.sub and config.guess to the latest versions (or at least version from automake-1.13.1) in order to support new architectures based on the ARM 64 bit CPU?

Below I've includes a patch which helps build OpenSSH outside from a read-only source tree, find OpenSSL on Mac OS X, and fix a typo. This applies to OpenSSH 2.1.1p4. You should already have gotten a note from Melissa O'Neil about a conflict with the crc32() symbol in zlib, which was causing a crash on Darwin. I've noticed another bug. If ssh is setuid, I get a permission
