similar to: A banner.

Hi SSH developer community I am using CVS over SSH (and SSH in other cases too) and in a certain context it is very annoying to get the SSH banner displayed all the time when using e.g. CVS. Is there a way to set negative verbosity or to otherwise quell the banner information in SSH (or, worse, in CVS). I have tried ssh -q but that does _not_ quell the banner. Best Johan (I am not a

Hello, The banner message displayed on the screen contain octal values instead of korean chars. Prior to ssh 5.1 the banner message would display the charaters properly. I understand that starting from 5.1 the message is passed through strnvis() function. I looked into documentation on strnvis and found that it does not support multibyte chars and doesnt work well with international chars.

Hi All. OpenSSH 4.1 will be released in the next couple of weeks and we invite interested parties to test a snapshot. The changes since 4.0 are mostly bugfixes, for a detailed list see http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=994 Running the regression tests supplied with Portable does not require installation and is a simply: $ ./configure && make tests Testing on suitable

I've configured OpenSSH_5.3p1 to only allow sftp connections (openssh chroot functionality). i.e. Subsystem sftp internal-sftp Match group sftpusers ChrootDirectory /chroot/%u X11Forwarding no AllowTcpForwarding no ForceCommand internal-sftp So far everything works correctly with sftp but when a user ssh's or scp's to the box the login

If I scp from/to a server that has a banner using scp -q, it still shows the banner. If I ssh -q to the same server, the banner is skipped. scp -o "LogLevel quiet" does the trick, but is excessively cumbersome. - Morty

On Solaris, if you create a banner file /etc/issue it will do what I think you want. However, it comes in on stderr from your ssh client, so you need to do complicated things to get clean output from stderr of remote commands. Does anyone know if this is different from the banner option in the sshd_config that everyone's been talking about? On Jan 15, 2004, at 7:13 PM,

Hello, I am developing a PAM module that is called from OpenSSH server when a ssh-client wants to login in the machine. I want my module PAM to send a message to the ssh-client as soon as the PAM module is called by using the pam_info function, but I have checked that the message is not instantly shown in the client unless I send a prompt. I would like to find a way to send the message instantly

I noticed "make tests" for openssh-5.2p1 fails the multiplex.sh tests. Turns out this is because I happen to have some non-standard configuration options in $HOME/.ssh/config and most of the multiplex.sh tests do not use a "-F $OBJ/ssh_config" option, which means they end up reading the users $HOME/.ssh/config. Is this on purpose or a bug?

Vesion 3.8.1 of OpenSSH has been compiled on a Solaris 8 host. I am having difficulties in enabling password aging to work from reading /etc/default/passwd and /etc/shadow. # passwd -f < user-id > works satisfactorily however once a password ages through due course from the settings in /etc/default/passwd and /etc/shadow the users are not prompted to change passwords and the user is logged

Hello, I think to have find a small pb with openssh when a Radius server is unreachable.

Hi, we are running into an issue with changing expired passwords through SSH connection. We always have to tell our users to use telnet to change the password. We want to completely shutdown telnet on all of our systems, because of this issue we are not able to shut it down. Is there a known issue with OpenSSH, or am I just missing some configuration. Thanks in advance for your help. -Sandeep

I'm using the openssh that comes with Ubuntu 12.04 so thats 5.9p1 I'm trying to debug why i'm getting corrupt bzip2 files when they are transferred using sftp. The corruption doesnt happen on every file. I'm running debug mode on sftp-server, but when doing that i see output like the following for both valid and corrupt files, May 3 18:50:55 ftp-new sftp-server[16955]: debug3:

Hi, I'm using openssh on Solaris. I noticed that the password expitation warning messages are no longer displayed in the login banner. Any idea how to correct this? Thanks, Vanessa Vaz OSS Nokalva, Inc. www.oss.com Tel: 732-302-9669 ext. 112 Fax: 732-302-0023

Is there an alternative to using link(2) to rename files in sftp-server? Some users use sftp to upload files to a vfat partition on an sftp-server, and then renaming doesn't work. This breaks konqueror, for example (from KDE, which u), which upload files first with a ".part" extension and then renames them removing this extension.

i want to be able to suppress the banner from the client side (ssh/slogin/scp/sftp) but i don't see a way to do it cleanly. for example, if there were a -B flag that suppressed the banner that would be alright. i did try -q, but that suppresses all stderr, which is unacceptable since i do want to see the error output when ssh fails to know why it failed. another idea would be to have -q

Hi I've been testing internal-sftp with chroot on OpenSSH_5.3p1 and it seems that internal-sftp does not support POSIX atomic rename() operations. Can someone confirm that this feature is only available in the sftp-server and not internal-sftp? Are there plans to include atomic file operations in internal-sftp? Thanks

hello! i want to use the new options for sftp logging (openshh version 4.5, solaris 10), but sshd doesn't know the options (LogSftp, Sftpxxxxx) from the release notes 4.4: " * Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8). " 4.5 is only a bug fix version. from http://sftplogging.sourceforge.net/ " NOTICE: 1/31/2007. This patch is superseded by the sftpfilecontrol

Hi, I am trying to use internal-sftp to limit sftp only access to a set of users. I have set sshd_config as follows sshd_config =========== Subsystem sftp internal-sftp -f LOCAL0 -l VERBOSE Match group ftp ChrootDirectory /sftp/%u X11Forwarding no AllowTcpForwarding no ForceCommand internal-sftp -f LOCAL0 -l VERBOSE Match I am able to access internal-sftp and run sftp sessions properly.

Why is there an inconsistency with the option for the destionation port. ssh -p <port> ... scp -P <port> ... sftp -P <port> ... For scp it is neccessary to be "-P" ( Quote: " Note that this option is written with a capital 'P', because $B!](Bp is already reserved for preserving the times and modes of the file in rcp(1)." ). Also sftp uses already

[ Sorry for the length of this; I felt it better to provide potentially too much info, rather than not enough. I've probably missed something that's important, though! ] I have an odd problem with 5.1p on RHEL3 if "UsePAM yes" and "UsePrivilegeSeparation no" is set. The code detects that the user password is aged (according to shadow) but then fails to let me
