similar to: 3.7.1P2, PermitRootLogin and PAM with hidden NISplus passwor ds

Greetings, I know that part of the following has been discussed here before but please bear with me. We are running on Solaris versions 2.6 - 9 with a NISplus name service. The permissions on the NISplus password map have been modified to limit read access to the encrypted password field of the passwd table to only the entry owner and the table administrators. See:

I'm running version 4.7p1 of OpenSSH on a Linux system (it was originally a RedHat system, but I've changed almost everything.) When I originally built OpenSSH I used the config option --without-pam, and installed the software in /usr/local. I explicitly forbade root login with sshd (by setting the PermitRootLogin to "no" in the sshd_config file), but found that I could login as

Hi, I am using OpenSSH 3.9p1. For " UsePAM yes/no " option with " PermitRootLogin without-password", the server functionality differs. For " UsePAM yes ", the server allows authentication thru password, meanwhile " UsePAM no " does not. I have fixed that problem and the patch is given below.

I just ran into what I'd describe as an unexpected side-effect. I don't think it's necessarily a bug, and I don't need any assistance in working around it, but this information might be useful to others for troubleshooting. This was using OpenSSH built under Solaris 2.5.1, and running under 2.5.1 or 8. The symptom was that after upgrading from 3.7.1p1 to 3.7.1p2, some accounts

The following patch makes forced-command logins as

I have "PermitRootLogin no" in my sshd_config, but under Tru64 and SIA, the root login attempts still get passed to the SIA system (so I get lots of warnings about failed root logins). On systems with a "max failed attempts" setting, the root account can be locked out this way. I started looking at the code, and I'm not sure I understand what I see. In auth-passwd.c,

Hello, I have recently download and compiled version 3.7.1p2 of openssh, but am having authentication issues with it. I have been using 3.6.1p1 with no problems. Both versions were compiled on the same Solaris 8 host. That host uses ldap for its name service. Both were compiled using the same openssh config options: --prefix=/opt/openssh --with-pam --with-zlib=/opt/openssh/lib However, the

Hi, I have an auth module for PAM that I wrote a few years ago called pam_vsd.so. The idea is that a user must have a certain privilege before they can successfully authenticate. Without the privilege the PAM module will return PAM_PERM_DENIED. However I find that in OpenSSH 3.7.1p2, I can easily subvert this check simply by hitting return 3 times on connection i.e. [nick at localhost

Hello all, I was running some tests with openssh 3.7.1p2 and I noticed that PermitRootLogin without-password does not work when PAM is enabled. In fact, when PAM is enabled, PermitRootLogin will work as "yes" if " without-password" is used, no matter what kind of authentication is used for root login. Is that a bug, I missed something in the configurations, or expected

For those of us who do require / use PAM, will the expired password patch be ported to 3.7.1p2? If so, any kind of estimate on when? Thanks

Hi, I was investigating why I don't see any warnings from pam_ldap indicating the pending expiration of passwords as well as for PAM_NEW_AUTHTOK_REQD. Eventually, I found that do_pam_account() does not have a conversation function. Also, there is a function print_pam_messages (currently empty) which look suspiciously like it is ear marked to show just those error messages: /* auth-pam.c
