Hi, Cygwin only: Under some circumstances, the sshd service gets accidentally started *before* the network service has been started up. The reason that this can happen is, that the sshd service gets installed without a dependency to the network service in contrib/cygwin/ssh-host-config so far. The below patch fixes that by adding a dependency to the "tcpip" Windows service. This

Hi, the below patch to contrib/cygwin is a major rework to allow various changes in the installation process on Cygwin machines. The important changes are: - New Makefile, providing a `cygwin-postinstall' target which allows to create a base installation as in the Cygwin distribution, which should be run right after a `make install'. - Additional information given in the README

Hi, the following patch changes two files in the contrib/cygwin subdir: It changes the Cygwin specific README file which adds some hints related to the new feature to switch user context without password (which means using public key and/or rhosts authentication). Some old stuff is erased. The changes to ssh-host-config are intended to allow an easier startup for users which are new to Cygwin

Hi, the below patch solves a problem with recent changes in the Cygwin default installation process. Could somebody please apply it?

Hi, could somebody with checkin rights please apply the below patch? It modernizes and improves readability of the Cygwin README file (which hasn't been updated for ages), drops unsupported OSes from the ssh-host-config help text, and drops an unneeded option from ssh-user-config. Thanks in advance, Corinna Index: contrib/cygwin/README

Hi, the following patch fixes a wrong path in a chown command. The additional leading slash collides with accessing SMB shares using double slashes as in "//server/share" on Windows systems.

Hi, The below patch fixes two problems. The first one is a better support for automated scripts. The old script had a logic problem when it came to asking the caller for the user account to use for the sshd service. The second is a problem in the usage of eval. Could somebody with checkin rights please apply the patch? Thanks, Corinna Index: contrib/cygwin/ssh-host-config

Hi, could anybody with check in privileges apply the following patch to the contrib cygwin directory? It only updates ssh-host-config to create the *_config files matching the latest versions in the top level dir and it updates a version number in README.

Hi, the below patch adds a Windows NT user right to the sshd_server user which will be important in an upcoming version of Cygwin. I have a preliminary implementation which solves the problem that native Windows processes don't recognize the user name correctly, if the user has logged in using public key authentication. The new mechanism requires the SeTcbPrivilege for the user which

Hi, I have a small patch here which changes the Cygwin README file so that the following fact is mentioned. OpenSSH never uses $HOME to search for user config files but the value in the pw_dir field in /etc/passwd. This might be of minor interest for generic U*X folks but that's an important fact for Cygwin users. When /etc/passwd is automatically created under WinNT/2K it uses the values

Hi, the following patch patches the files in contrib/cygwin. The changes are necessary to allow a better support of privilege separation. On NT machines the script asks now if it should create a user called "sshd" and all that. Additionally it creates the /etc/ssh_config and /etc/sshd_config files follows the latest versions. Would you mind to apply this to the official OpenSSH

Hi, below is a patch to contrib/cygwin/ssh-host-config and the corresponding README in the same dir. It adds a `--port' option to the config script to allow setting another port than 22 for sshd. Additionally the script used to add `sshd 22/tcp' to the services file while the IANA proposes `ssh 22/tcp' and `ssh 22/udp' as services entries. The new version removes old `sshd'

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;

Hi, I just tried to build the latest portable code from CVS on Cygwin. I stumbled over a problem with the definitions of gai_strerror and ssh_gai_strerror. On systems not having gai_strerror, the fake-rfc2553.c file defines its own version of gai_strerror, and fake-rfc2553.h additionally has this definition of gai_strerror: #define gai_strerror(a) (ssh_gai_strerror(a)) OTOH, misc.c

Hi, I have added two features to the ssh-host-config script which is used in Cygwin installations to prepare the host based OpenSSH configuration. Now it cares for a /var/log/lastlog file if it's not already installed (Thanks to "Karl M" <karlm30 at hotmail.com> for that patch) and it now asks the user if s/he wants to install sshd as a NT service and, if so, installs it.

Hi, would you mind to apply the below patch? It fixes Cygwin's ssh-host-config script in various ways: - Remove old code to remove the "sshd/22" entry from /etc/services. This code fixes a problem which only existed in installations which are more than 10 years old. - Handle the StrictMode setting interactively. - Fix regular expressions looking for white spaces. - Make the

Hi, I've just trieed to build OpenSSH on Cygwin with Kerberos support enabled, and while doing that I stumbled over a problem: The openbsd-compat/bsd-cygwin_util.h header include a Windows header, and depending on which Win32 header files are included (Mingw32/Mingw64) that can result in a `#define _WIN32'. This in turn can break linking against some packages. In my case it's

Hi, the following patch explicitely sets the permissions on /var/empty to 755 when running the ssh-host-config script on Cygwin. I never thought it would be necessary but apparently there are actually users working with a umask of 0. Sigh.
