similar to: ssh-agent build failure on AIX

Any ideas of the best way around this problem? Should I just hack the source code, or is there a magic switch somewhere I'm missing? I'm assuming I can't just dismiss that function as OpenSSH is probably based on the OpenBSD semantics. ============================================================================= gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wno-uninitialized -I. -I.

Hello All, I've updated the AIX package builder (contrib/aix/buildbff.sh). The changes are below. Please review and commit if OK. First, a question: Does anyone want SRC (System Resource Controller) support in the packages? I don't use it but I've been sent an example of how do do it without modifying sshd itself. Onto the changes: * Supports PrivSep. Postinstall will create

Hi All, While testing another patch, I found that I could not longer log in as root, even if PermitRootLogin was yes. It seems to be the following code in auth_password: $ cvs diff -r1.48 -r1.49 auth-passwd.c [snip] #ifndef HAVE_CYGWIN - if (pw->pw_uid == 0 && options.permit_root_login != PERMIT_YES) + if (pw->pw_uid == 0 && options.permit_root_login !=

Hi, I have a problem with the extern declarations of optarg, optind, etc. We're currently moving getopt from being a statically linked function to a dynamically linked function as part of the Cygwin DLL. On Windows, this requires to generate special symbols (__imp__optarg, etc.), which is done by marking the exported variables in the corresponding header. Instead of extern char *optarg;

Hello All, After seeing what is probably the zillionth "OpenSSL headers don't match library" bug report I made the following mod to configure.ac. It always writes the versions of the library and headers to config.log and prints them to stdout if they don't match. Hopefully this will help diagnose these problems in future. Example output below. -Daz. $ ./configure [snip]

Hi All. The discussion about SOCKS5 support set me thinking about how you would test it, and I came up with the attached test. (Again, mostly code stolen from another test, this time forwarding.sh). It requires "connect" [1] but will skip the test if it's not found. -Daz. [1] http://www.taiyo.co.jp/~gotoh/ssh/connect.html -- Darren Tucker (dtucker at zip.com.au) GPG key

Hi. I'm one of the OpenSSH developers, and I've done some of the work on sshd's PAM interface recently. I've discovered some behaviour peculiar to LinuxPAM that I can't explain: changing the conversation function does not appear to work, even though the pam_set_item() call claims to succeed. The previous conversation function is still called. Background: the PAM API

Hi All. As of now, openssh on AIX passes all regressions tests (and, yes, I just checked!), works with privsep, bugzilla has zero open AIX-specific bugs and IBM ship it essentially unmodified as a supported product. I think it's beyond "support underway" :-) -Daz. -- Darren Tucker (dtucker at zip.com.au) GPG key 8FF4FA69 / D9A3 86E9 7EEE AF4B B2D4 37C9 C982 80C7 8FF4 FA69

Hi All. Damien merged a bunch of changes today which caused compile errors on a few platforms (which you can see live and in colour at [0]). a) Solaris, early AIX: ../crc32.c:100: `u_int32_t? undeclared (first use in this function) On these platforms u_int32_t is defined in defines.h which is not included by crc32.c. Fixed by attached patch. b) PAM platforms (Redhat, Solaris once a) is

Hi All. New AIX packages of OpenSSH 3.6.1p1 are available for download at [1]. There are two tarballs, one for the as-distributed code and one with the password expiration patch. Each tarball contains binaries for AIX 4.x and AIX 5.x. The usual caveats apply (see page). These packages have been more popular than I ever thought they'd be. They are about to clock up the one thousandth

Hi All. Recently a change was merged from OpenBSD's sshd into Portable that implements a KerberosGetAFSToken option (patchset attached). This change causes compile errors with both MIT Kerberos and Heimdal (errors when compiled with MIT Kerberos below). I've figured out that the functions called in the new code are in Heimdal's libkafs, so adding -lkafs to the start for the

Hi All. There are still build errors for scp on AIX 4.2.1 due to lack of nanosleep (which you can see them live and in colour at [1]). The attached patch fixes this by using the equivalent nsleep function on AIX if it exists and nanosleep doesn't. The patch is mostly the same as the AIX portion of the previous patch for the nanosleep issue, the major difference being that the #define is in

Hi All. First the questions: Is there anything objectionable in this patch? Is AUDIT_FAIL_AUTH appropriate for the "Reason" field? Now the details: attached is a patch that changes some of the #includes for AIX. It moves the AIX-specific includes to port-aix.h and adds includes that contain the prototypes for many of the authentication functions. The idea isto fix some warnings.

Hi. One thing that people seem to want to do with PAM is to deny a login immediately without interacting but return a message to the user. (Some platforms implement, eg, /etc/nologin via PAM this way.) Currently, sshd will just deny the login and the user will not be told why. Attached it a patch that return a keyboard-interactive packet with the message in the "instruction"

Hi All. I've decided to try to merge the -Portable parts of the password expiry patch (see bug #14) that do not depend on the OpenBSD change in bug #463. The attached patch is the first step in this process. It removes the AIX-specific "char *aixloginmsg" and replaces it with a platform-neutral "Buffer loginmsg". I think this is worth having in -Portable even if it

I am having difficulties compiling openssh3.6p2 under AIX 5.2.

Hi All. With one eye on the do_pam_chauthtok() stuff I've merged contributions by Pablo Sor and Mark Pitt into a patch against -current. I'm interested in testers and suggestions for improvements.
