similar to: case sensitivity, "Match User" and "AllowUsers"

Markus, ignore the other stuff I sent.. I need to go back to bed and stop trying to code.. <sigh> For everone else.. Will this make everyone happy? This does the follow. it will always honor AllowUsers. If there is no Allow/DenyGroups it stated they are not in allowUsers. IF there are AllowDenyGroups it tries them. And then stated they are not in either AllowUsers nor AllowGroups

Hi there, I have just compiled openssh-5.0 on Solaris 10, and am trying to set up a certain pattern of user access control. Essentially, regular users should be able to login from any network, while root should be able to login only from a private network 192.168.88.0/22. Actually, for the purpose of sshd_config, this is four networks, but that's another story... Here is what I tried:

Hey everyone, After discussing the AllowGroups I think I've discovered a bug. The system is a solaris 8 system and the problem is that when I use AllowGroups with no AllowUsers args, the proper actions happen. Same with AllowUsers and no AllowGroups. When I try to combine the two, none of the Allow directives seem to take. Is it just me or maybe a bug? -James

Hi, I hope this is the right place for a feature request. I'd like to have more flexible AllowUsers/DenyUsers synax. I am in a situation, where I have machines connected to three networks (a private, high speed, a public, and a private vpn) and I'd like to enable root logins only on the private networks. Currently I see no way of doing this, because there is no way to specify a

Hi list! I have some machines running openssh 3.9p1. AllowUsers is set to my users, that are allowed to login. If I set PermitRoot without-password, but do not include root in AllowUsers, root is not able to login with pubkey. I do not want to set root in AllowUsers, since the without-password option should check this allready, I think... So I made a small patch that allows me to login as root

It seems the syntax for AllowUsers in sshd_config is not the same that is given in man sshd_config and in several documentation on the web. (http://www.openssh.com/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd_config) e.g. AllowUsers root does work. AllowUsers root username does not work. If I try to login as root I get "User root from <hostname> not allowed because not listed in AllowUsers".

Hello, I've trawled archives looking for changes in the "AllowUsers" option, manuals, changes log, reported bugs and to my surprise I can't find anything or anyone that has reported the issues that I am experiencing. I am using the default installation sshd_config file as supplied by Redhat and the only options I have changed are: ListenAddress AllowUsers The first problem

I smacked into this previously reported bug today whereby an invalid keyword in the Match{} stanza did not throw an error on configuration reload. Are there any plans to fix this? Likewise the penchant for some fields to be comma separated and others to be spaces is just asking for mistakes. Why not support both and be done with it? There was no response (that I saw in the archives) to this post

I have a number of development machines behind my OpenBSD firewall which all provide a very permissive development account (and easy sudo). I don't want this account exposed on the internet side of the firewall, so I created a doorstep account with no perms and really long passwords to get anywhere useful. I looked through the SSH book and it gave me the impression that I could set up these

While testing some AllowUsers and AllowGroups combinations I was surprised to find that one cannot be used to override the other. For example: AllowGroups administrators AllowUsers john If john is *not* part of the administrators group, then access is being denied. Is this the expected behaviour? This would force me to create another group just for ssh, something like ssh-admins. This other

Hi all, I'm trying to get rsync running on a Windows 2k box (my tape backup server) to remotely back up stuff from a few unix boxes. Not my favored constellation, but there's not much I can do about that. I'm hoping someone could give me a quick tip or two on getting rsync working as a Win2k service. I'm not real proficient with Win2k, so be gentle. The posts I could find

Hello! I want to start rsync on w2k as service. If I try to start rsync from command line it simply do nothig: $ rsync --daemon Administrator@dm-w2ks /usr/bin $ ps PID PPID PGID WINPID TTY UID STIME COMMAND 480 1 480 480 con 500 04:15:03 /usr/bin/bash 1428 480 1428 1420 con 500 05:26:46 /usr/bin/ps Administrator@dm-w2ks

What I was trying to do: I wanted to use the AllowGroups facility to allow users in by group instead of listing individual usernames but also allow root only from a single central host. Setup actions: targetusername on target host has a secondary group entry of "staff". Updated sshd_config to add the lines: AllowUsers root at nimsrvr AllowGroups staff targertusername is NOT

Hi, I've just been adding a few extra hosts to my sshd_config's AllowUsers, and it's got a bit unwieldy. As far as I can tell from the sshd_config(5) and ssh_config(5) man pages, the *only* way to specify multiple AllowUsers patterns is on a single line, separated by spaces. With more than 6 or 7 patterns it starts wrapping on to multiple lines and gets hard to read, especially

This is a port of a patch I contributed to ssh 1.2.23 in May 1998. I have missed the functionality after moving to OpenSSH so I have updated the patch and hope OpenSSH might accept it. The patch allows sshd_config to have lines like: AllowUsers root at localhost AllowUsers tridge@* AllowUsers guest at 192.168.2.* DenyUsers badguy@* etc. I found this useful for restricting users to only login

A short while ago, I looked at using the AllowUsers configuration option in openssh (v3.8p1 , but I believe this to be unchanged in 3.9p1) to restrict access such that only specific remote machines could access specific local accounts. I swiftly discovered that a) specifying wildcarded IP numbers to try to allow a useful IP range was pointless: if I specified AllowUsers joe at

Hi guys, i think, that we have found an issue in the config "sshd_config". The correct way is, to set AllowUsers in the config like this: > AllowUsers root at 10.10.10.10 user1 at 20.20.20.20 user2 at 30.30.30.30 In our case, users were separated with a comma. Our hoster has not followed the correct syntax. After a reload of the ssh service no error was displayed, and the
