similar to: AIX issue using chroot

Hi all, Tripped over a documentation bug. I'm guessing the behavior I've found isn't a bug in itself as it's kind of implied by chroot (unless the /etc/passwd db is read *before* you do the chroot call), so I'm calling it a documentation bug. The Setup: System A: running rsync --daemon from xinetd, configured with a read-only share. System B: syncing a local directory

the rsync in centos 4 (a recompile of rhel4) is version 2.6.3. and under certain circumstances it will segfault when run in daemon mode. i have tracked it down to the nss code in libc. so this could be a general libc bug, but it is possible that rsync is doing things that don't help matters any. the problem manifests when you have chroot mode on (which seems to be the default), have

Hi, getpwuid is called as seen in the patch, and is then called again indirectly by tilde_expand_filename without first copying off the results from the first call. This is fatal on MacOSX (and it would seem it should be fatal elsewhere, too). Please CC me in replies; I'm not a subscriber. --- openssh-4.4p1/ssh.c 2006-09-01 22:32:40.000000000 -0700 +++ openssh-4.4p1-fix/ssh.c

Why would I be getting this on a box? I have the same permissions on many other directories. Using verbose mode shows nothing more then the error in the Subject line. Any help is appreciated. -- Jason G Helfman Network Administrator BizRate.com 310.754.1264 desk

Hello, I know this chroot issue has been brought up many times before on this list. I saw that the contribibuted chroot-patch was removed from the contrib directory because it always was out of date. The main reason was of course was that sftp-server has to be run as root to be able to do the chroot() call? Most of you are against chroot (since it isnt in the src) but I believe a lot of users

Hello, I cannot access a remote drive using Windows or smbclient; my authentication appears successful according to the samba log file, but `getpwuid` fails.

Trying to get either avelsieve or server side filters to work with managesieve. Managesieve is running but whenever avelsieve or the server settings backend try to talk to it the same thing happens. So I guess it's really a problem with something about managesieve at this point. I hit the Message Filters option, it takes a long time for it to come back, though it finally just times out and

Hello, I recently set up a new software to backup samba share. This software ( https://github.com/borgbackup/borg ) run on file server as root cron script during the night and save file on external NAS. The problem I have is that for each file copied from samba share to external NAS, winbindd log an error such this to samba.log.winbindd and /var/log/messages [2017/11/06 11:05:16.747449, 0]

Hello openssh developers, long time no see :-) there is a bug in sshd with *nix machines joined to Active Directory using Samba's winbind daemon. The problem is that with cold caches, a user logging in via ssh gets possibly the wrong primary gid assigned. Let me try to explain in detail: In Active Directory (AD) you only get a correct access token (group memberships of a user) during

At the moment, if you start an rsyncd that's not running as root using default settings it will have some trouble. rsyncd tries to use chroot by default, but this will always fail if it's not started by root. It does emit an error message in this case, but I wonder if some people find this a bit confusing until they discover the setting. I have in the past. It might be better that if

Thanks to both but did not worked. Tomorrow i'll try to reinstall the whole OS because maybe i've installed something wrong.

I'm working on setting up a semi-trusted sftp service, and to get it working, I need chroot capability. I've taken the /./ wuftpd magic token code from contrib/chroot.diff and put it into the sftp server. The main problem is that privileges have been dropped by the time the subsystem is exec'ed, so my patch requires that sftp-server be setuid root. Not ideal, I know, but I drop all

Hi, first of all i'm sorry for my english. I'm trying to create a print server in the same server that has the samba AD but i cannot make it work. For now i've: - A working AD server with Samba 4.2.5 - A Cups server with the print drivers - GPO policies to install the printers in the client computer All works perfect and even i can send test pages from cups, but i cannot
