Hi, We compiled and successfully installed OpenSSH 3.8.1p1 (or earlier version), but has false respond from lssrc -a command.

Hello AIX folks, I am changing the packaging of Samba for AIX. Presently Samba is built with a truckload of static libs and bound up in a package that has no other support for the supporting infrastructure. What I'd like to do instead is make as much of the package dependant upon shared libs and to allow for completeness of the package. In other words, BDB, OpenSSL, OpenLDAP, SASL, KRB5,

Hello All, I've written basic support for creating AIX native packages (ie installp/SMIT installable .bff's) that lives in contrib/aix. It is based on Ben Lindstrom's Solaris buildpkg.sh. It requires no special tools and all code was either written by me or derived from the openssh distribution itself. It is made available under the same terms as buildpkg.sh (ie public domain).

I''m installing puppet from git per instructions in another thread. The instructions given at http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/installation.html for installing puppet from source lead to it dumping things all over my Ruby, which I really wasn''t expecting and doesn''t work well with our environment. (1) How do I uninstall it? (2) How do I turn the git source into a gem?

I have a piece of shell script as below: ACTIVE_INTERFACE=`/sbin/ifconfig | /bin/gawk '' /^eth/ { print $1 } '' | /usr/bin/head -1` How do I translate it to puppet code, for example to assign the result as a variable to use?

I''ve just posted a feature request <http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8120> relating to FIPS 140-2 compliance. I''m pointing to it here on the mailing list because I listed there five places where Puppet (nay, Ruby!) crashed while I was testing a deployment using FIPS mode on all hosts. It crashed because it tried to use MD5, and OpenSSL in FIPS mode doesn''t let

Anyone had any experience getting puppet to update multiple OS''s on a single server? For example, for a set of blades Network booting from a primary server, the OS for each blade would be stored on the primary server. For example: /pxe/host1/<normal OS directory structure> /pxe/host2/<normal OS directory structure> ..... /pxe/hostn/<normal OS directory structure> Can

Hello, I am a bit confused by the REST syntax - how can I PUT an arbitrary file in the bucket? Downloading works fine (Perl+LWP), see below, but for PUT I only see this line in the docs (http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/rest_api.html): PUT /{environment}/file_bucket_file/md5/{checksum} Should I compute the MD5 of the file and port its contents at the url ? my code: my $ua =

Hello, We''re trying to come up with a nice way to indicate when a Puppet module like cloud provisioner breaks a Puppet subcommand because of missing dependencies. When this happens in the current 3.0rc branch, all help for all subcommands is unavailable. This isn''t very helpful. We''re planning to simply mark the subcommands that have incomplete actions as

Hello all, I just installed 3.0.24 in AIX5.3 using installp binaries. The install went well, and I can connect to shared directories from Windows. When I try to log in to the SWAT tool, it does not accept the password of any userid that I try with, including root. I don't recall having to do anything special to use SWAT on my older servers running SAMBA 2.2.8. I have added the following

I'm new to using openSSH on AIX and want to know how others are launching and maintaing sshd. I see where sshd has a -i option for use with inetd, but I am thinking about adding the AIX SRC APIs so that I can use the commands: lssrc, startsrc and stopsrc to maintain the daemon. -- Denise M.

Hi, If anyone has managed to get sshd to run as a subsystem in the System Resource Controller under AIX 4.3.3 (a la mkssys), then please let me know how you did it... I can mkssys and startsrc it, but it dies immediately, leaving a child sshd running with another PID than startsrc reported, and lssrc reports sshd inoperative. Is sshd a process that should stay in foreground, not forking? Or does
