>From what I understand, the problem is due to people's disagreement about what the "correct" behavior should be. I'm pretty sure that the following is the correct behavior from running rsh and ssh often (both fsecure and openssh). Lets say you have a stupid script that does while 1 do sleep 1 done Called foreverSleep on your remote host: rsh remotehost

Ok, so I think I have a complete explanation for the difference between the *BSD behaviour and the Linux/Solaris behaviour. Well, almost complete :) Pull out your trusty copies of "The Design and Implementation of the 4.4BSD Operating System" as well as "Unix Internals: The New Frontiers". Specifically, pages 111-112 and 344 of the former and page 108 of the latter. It comes

Here is a simpler patch (based on Markus Friedl's suggestion posted to this list) to OpenSSH-3.0.2p1 to fix the hang-on-exit bug (Protocol 2 only). To date, no data loss has been reported with this patch: it does not break ssh or scp. This patch should make OpenSSH work on all operating systems exactly as it does under FreeBSD. This patch and others are maintained on the

Attached is a very small patch that allows the ssh clients to use the socks5 library. It should work with socks4 but is untested. Tested on linux only configure --with-socks configure --with-socks5 Also included is a configure option to disable scp statistics --disable-scp-stats modified files openssh-2.9.9p2/acconfig.h openssh-2.9.9p2/channels.c openssh-2.9.9p2/configure.in

Sir/Madam, I am a graduate student in Petroleum Engineering. I have a problem in using R and hope that you could help in solving that. I have a code in C, which displays orthogonal arrays when I give number of rows and number of columns to it. I have another code in R that calls this C code. I am very new to R. I downloaded the R and loaded packages base and mva. I also kept my C code .exe

The hang-on-exit bug still hasn't been fixed in OpenSSH-3.0p1... :-( Here again is the patch to fix this bug under Linux, updated for OpenSSH-3.0p1. This has been exhaustively tested for six months now. It also add an exit delay option that can be useful. The patch does not lead to data loss under Linux. Please see the Secure NFS page (SNFS) for further details:

I have two identical installations of samba v2.25 on linux boxes. On one system everything works fine but on the other, copies of smbd start but never terminate. The result is that the winduhs boxes that are trying to access the samba share get locked out and never find the samba server. The configurations of the two systems are identical and I am unable to determine why one works and the other

Hi, I use openssh-2.9p2 on LynxOS i386 system. sshd runs on LynxOS and ssh client on Redhat 7.0 Linux system (openssh-2.9p2 ssh client). The ssh client hangs on exit 90% of times. I don't think this is the usual hang-on-exit bug, because, there are no background processes running, I suppose. I attach the server debug messages. $ssh -V hari at lynx (From Linux) ...

The hang on exit has become quite an issue in my organization(Sun and HP hosts). I see this note in the changelog which indicates that there will not be a fix for this problem: 20001129 - (djm) Back out all the serverloop.c hacks. sshd will now hang again if there are background children with open fds. Also, I am aware of the workaround as noted in the FAQ. However this workaround is not

When should sshd disconnect an SSHv2 connection? Markus Friedl says "for protocol v2 the client decides when to close the connection." In principle, I agree, because SSHv2 supports multiple sessions over the same connection, with the client able to launch new sessions anytime then it should be upto the client. But this would be a major cultural change for most users, and would break
